I hate most NORTHEASTERN suburbs as they are just as socially liberal as the cities they surround (see Middlesex County, Mass, Westchester County, NY and Bergen County, NJ to confirm my point).

Are there THAT many people still living in METRO (city and suburbs) Buffalo? Are there any non-government jobs there, aside from the HSBC operations center?

There are A LOT of government jobs in Buffalo...IRS, Federal Reserve, and DEC to name a few, but there are plenty of regular jobs too. I just learned the national phone center for Citibank is located in Amherst.
