I felt the same way when I visited both. But in the end, they are still two great cities. Rochester has a fantastic medical school btw. I do hear though that the nightlife is better in Buffalo. I would also say the IMO the architecture is nicer in Buffalo. Although the distance to Niagara Falls is much closer, and I would imagine this gives a nice boost to tourism for the metro area. Buffalo does have a high crime rate though; its a lot higher than Rochester.
