[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up in a suburb of Rochester. OP, if you're talking about moving to Canandaigua, that may be okay, as Canandaigua is basically a suburb of Rochester, so you wouldn't be too far from the "big city amenities" (ex. hospital, airport, culture, etc). However, the diversity may not be what you're used to in the DMV.

However, I think that if you're living anywhere else on or around the Finger Lakes (Bath, Elmira, Corning, Watkins Glen) it may not be a good fit, as those areas are pretty conservative, and you're far away from big city amenities, as PP's have mentioned. Depending on your needs, Ithaca may work okay, as it's considerably more liberal than the surrounding areas. [/quote]

I’m from Canandaigua (not OP) and it was a really wonderful place to grow up. A lot of my high school friends stayed in Canandaigua so it is still a fun place to visit. That said, there is a strong pro-Trump element there that you can’t ignore. I imagine a lot of the Finger Lakes towns are similar. [/quote]

Op here - yes talking about Canandaigua. The pro trump thing is the biggest factor for us leaning towards no. [/quote]

If that's a dealbreaker, would you consider living in one of the eastern burbs of Rochester instead?  Would you have jobs in Canandaigua that necessitate you living there?  Something like Penfield, Fairport would not be that far but a slightly different vibe politically (and good schools). Just a thought.[/quote]
