Gotta defend my city. While I don't doubt the police are racist, crime isn't actually that bad compared to other US cities. I live right outside of downtown and feel safe riding or walking almost anywhere in the city. Winter is something to embrace like other cold weather cities - easier when you have snow then rain and mud like some warmer places. And in my opinion it makes the spring and summer all the more glorious. Buffalo has had faced some hard times but the bleeding has stopped and past decade has seen the biggest improvements in years. It's legacy has left housing stock, infrastructure, architecture and culture that far outpaces other similar sized cities, at a similarly low cost.
