As the third largest city in New York, Rochester is big enough to offer an array of cultural, recreational and leisure activities, and small enough to live affordably and navigate easily. Its people and places live up to their top rankings for friendliness, family fun and memorable getaways.

Rochester is a mid-size city that maintains a small-town feeling, and it's easy to get around by car or public transportation. (Note: all city buses have bike racks). The Rochester International Airport provides direct flights (1-2 hours) to several other metropolitan areas such as New York City, Washington, D.C., and Chicago. With a cost of living significantly below the national average and proximity to the state’s beautiful Finger Lakes region, many who come here decide to stay.
