MONEY
For May/June, Spree takes a closer look at the almighty dollar, and it looks like Pink Floyd, Joel Grey, and the Beatles were right—it’s a gas, it makes the world go ’round, and it’s what I (and you) want. It’s also what everyone is curious about. What does a local university professor make, or a doctor, or a “fool?” How about the Buffalo Bills? For those curious to see how life in the Queen City compares to, say, Phoenix, there are cost-of-living comparisons between Buffalo and several other cities. Plus, Bass Pro—is it worth the money?

DESTINATIONS:
EAST AURORA
East Aurora has long been one of Western New York’s most artistic and historic communities. From the legendary Roycroft to the quaint shops, restaurants, and coffeehouses that line Main Street, it’s a great place to visit, and you might just want to live there.
