Review of Rochester, New York


Rising Costs
Star Rating - 3/1/2006
I have found it very difficult to find quality, affordable housing for families requiring a three or more bedroom unit. The only affordable housing to be found is of the least quality in the least desirable neighborhoods. Lead is also a big problem within the city of Rochester, with the most recent news report stating that at least 3 children per day in Rochester are poisoned by lead in the home.
