A hybrid between city living and suburban peace
Perched near the edge of the county, Schiller Park is among the easternmost neighborhoods of Buffalo, New York. Suburbs to the east and downtown Buffalo to the west contribute to the hybrid neighborhood that remains residential yet close to conveniences. The area’s residents gather regularly through events at houses of worship, a community center and a senior center. "The area has been developing a lot over the past 10 years. There has been a culture shift that is diversifying the community," says lifelong Buffalonian Andrew Scott, associate broker and partner of Scott Realty Group. The neighborhood was founded and named by German immigrants in the early 1900s. Just as the neighborhood welcomed newcomers over 100 years ago, it continues to do so today.

Housing prices are increasing post-pandemic
Set a few feet from the sidewalks of the gridded streets, homes in the area typically have modest backyards and petite front porches. The densely built area features a variety of styles, including charming bungalows and larger two-story homes. The buildings' interiors often feature original hardwood floors and antique accents. Houses range from $60,000 for a single-family worker's cottage to $230,000 for a multi-unit house.

Prices are increasing organically with people returning to the city after the pandemic.
