Is Tonawanda Town a good place to live?
First post here. Poverty rate is 6.6%, which is pretty low. The unemployment rate is 2.4%, which is pretty low. Average temperature is around 49--F, so expect cold winters. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.
Pros:
- Low crime in most areas
- Good healthcare facilities
- Walkable downtown
- Good internet infrastructure
Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Cold winters
- Limited dining options
- Mosquitoes and humidity
- Not enough green space
It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.
