<p>xxduplinsxx… As a resident of the city for the last three years, I’ve found Rochester to be a lot of fun. There are a lot of museums, minor league sports teams, a great music scene, great parks.</p>
<p>The truth is, it all depends on what you are looking for. I like that I can go to a professional production for an affordable price where I know I’ll be able to find parking - I’m going to see ‘Wicked’ this weekend with my wife. I like that I can drive 5 minutes from my house and be in a park with lots of acreage and miles of hiking trails. I like that I can go see some of my favorite musicians live pretty frequently, including at the Eastman School of Music - the last group I saw in Rochester was Guster.</p>
<p>A former co-worker of mine moved to Rochester from a big city on the west coast and made a good point - Rochester may not have as many offerings as a city like LA or NYC, but what we do have is affordable and accessible, and he found that he was actually doing more in the city of Rochester than he was in LA for that reason.</p>
<p>If you are looking for a big city, Rochester may not be your place. But in the last three years I have found Rochester to be anything but dull.</p>
