Suburban living with proximity to the Niagra River and Buffalo
Residents of Riverview don’t actually have river views. However, within a short-mile bike ride, they can watch the seagulls fly and the sunset over the Niagara River at Aqua Lane Park. Located in Tonawanda, New York, less than 10 miles north of Buffalo via Interstate 90, residents here enjoy the wealth of nearby outdoor activities, the quiet, suburban-vibe and housing prices well below the national average. “It’s a great place to raise a family. There are a lot of parks. The schools are good. It’s really close to amenities and it’s really close to Buffalo,” says Charles Glander, a broker with Avant Realty, who has been selling homes in the area for seven years. “If you don’t want to live in the city, but you work in Buffalo, it’s still an easy commute.”
