    "I am a new resident of about one and a half years now. I have lived in 8 other towns within 2 states and I can say I enjoy Buffalo the most! We are in the Rockford Township and have the pleasure of 2 school districts. Our street and the next two out of the neighborhood are all dead ends which make the traffic close to none. There is lots more to love but these are the top for me. "
  • Kevin
    "New walk path around Buffalo Lake makes this area even more enticing, for late night Kayak ventures on the lake, or walks with family around the lake. Great golf and atmosphere. When the snow falls, there's always a good neighbor to assist in getting the white stuff off the driveway."
  • David N.
    "Excellent area to live in, Schools, Hospital all rated # 1 decent entertainment, and all types of eating establishments except for white towel tuxedo haute cusine, for that 45 miles east to the Twin cities of Mpls/St Paul.
