Buffalo is 7 hours from NYC and maybe 1.5 hours from Toronto.

I highly doubt Toronto being seen as "the city" exists in a widespread way in Buffalo (much less Rochester) for anyone not having close personal ties to Toronto. Which would not be the majority of Buffalonians.
Buffalo is a pretty self-contained city and the border *does* matter, especially when you view it from the U.S. side.
Sure, people in Buffalo are aware of Toronto and many go there regularly for stuff but I doubt it's looming in the consciousness like New York City looms in Albany or Hartford.
