Fairport has done really careful planning over the years, so the moment it warms up just enough, you bundle up and can take a short walk right by the canal. For some reason often the canal is not frozen over as might be expected, so you can enjoy watching and listening to the water flowing in the canal. Yes, you may well see a hardy outdoorsman in a kayak on the canal! The smell of the coffee is great as you walk along the waterside trail. Rochester is an very musical city, due to the Eastman school of music being there. The region offers innumerable live music concerts at almost every conceivable venue. All the libraries near Rochester have beautiful, well maintained, pianos that library patrons donate generously to upkeep and to sponsor all four seasons concerts of music of every variety. Heavy wintertime moods are lifted by all the music, the small film houses or theaters and places like libraries, draft beer houses running weekend themed movie festivals. Many of these busy small business shops, often in large converted industrial buildings, also house many studios of painters, printers, interior designers, woodworking, pottery, etc. Many of the studios are connected to Toronto, Canada's largest metropolitan city, about two hours away. Of course, everyone up there masters a kind of duck waddle, to avoid slippery ice. The stores sell boots of a wide variety of styles that everyone wears all winter long. The Monroe County schools are solid, sound with consistently high ratings. Yes, he's right, there is a kind of sublime, subtle beauty of blue skies, high white clouds because Lake Ontario is nearby. NYS has won nationwide awards for utility performance and addressing power affordability challenges. The engineering tech sector of the Rochester area has been part of comprehensive, commendable efforts in initiating new innovations.

Another informative video, can't wait to take my kid back to visit and show her how to make snow angels because she's never been in the snow and cold
Oh that’s exciting!! Great memories from winter as a kid! I’m experiencing those memories right now with my 3 year old daughter 🥹
Fairport is so nice, a target of my family for our move there in a few years. Pittsford, Penfield. East Rochester and Henrietta also on my list
Yes!! All great areas - Henrietta will have the cheapest taxes, but it’s all so nice and so much to do! And close to everything
