I grew up in Niagara Falls downtown back in the sixties and seventies it was One of the best places to live in the country . The factories all closing down corruption And bad politicians rune Niagara Falls.
I live in Upstate NY, and have been to the falls twice. The falls are nice. However, the towns surrounding it is pretty dirty and slum. It's no different than any other democratic ran city.
Final proof that casino gambling does not provide economic benefits to the area. Many restaurants and bars just closed because they could not compete with the free drinks and low cost meals.
