LEARN A NEW LANGUAGE IN BUFFALO

Buffalo is the second largest city in the U.S. state of New York and the largest city in Western New York. As of 2019’s census estimates, the city population was 255,28. Serving as a major gateway for commerce and travel across the Canadian border, Buffalo forms part of the bi-national Buffalo Niagara Region and Buffalo–Niagara Falls metropolitan area.    On the eastern shore of Lake Erie and at the head of the Niagara River, Buralo is 16 miles south of Niagara Falls. Its early embrace of electric power led to the nickname “The City of Light”. The city is also famous for its urban planning and layout by Joseph Ellicott, an extensive system of parks designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, as well as significant architectural works.   Its culture blends Northeastern and Midwestern traditions, with annual festivals including Taste of Buffalo and Allentown Art Festival, two professional sports teams, and a thriving and progressive music and arts scene.  Although the region’s primary tourism destination is Niagara Falls to the north, Buffalo’s tourism relies on historical attractions and outdoor recreation. The city’s points of interest include the Edward M. Cotter fireboat, considered the world’s oldest active fireboat. Redeveloped historic neighborhoods have also attracted tourism. The site of the former Erie Canal Harbor has become a popular destination for tourists and residents since 2007 when Buffalo and the New York Power Authority began to redevelop the former site of the Buffalo Memorial Auditorium into historically accurate canals.   Buffalo is one of the largest Polish American centers in the United States. As a result, many aspects of Polish culture have found a home in the city from food to festivals. One of the best examples is the yearly celebration of Easter Monday, known to many Eastern Europeans as Dyngus Day.    As of 2017, 9.49% of Buffalo, NY residents were born outside of the country (24.5k people). In 2018, the most common birthplace for the foreign-born residents of New York was Dominican Republic, with 505,970 New York residents, followed by China with 407,280 and Mexico with 222,031.
