Rochester
Rochester is located in the USA, in the west of the state of New York. The city is located on the shores of Lake Ontario, in the northeast of the country. Rochester bears the title of the world's "optical capital", as the headquarters of many well-known companies in the industry are located here. Tourists are attracted to the city by the fact that many famous sights can be easily reached from it. High Falls Waterfall is visible from Rochester, from here it is convenient to get to Turning Point Park, Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Finger Lakes. Various festivals and celebrations are regularly held in the city, for example, the annual spring lilac Festival. The Genesee Brewery in Rochester is one of the largest and oldest in America, it has been operating since 1878. The city has many modern restaurants with excellent cuisine for every taste, the University of Rochester is located, the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra is based.

Rochester is a city in the United States, New York, Monroe County, and the third most populous after New York and Buffalo with a population of 205,695 people.

The city of Rochester forms the core of a much larger suburban and rural area.
The Rochester Region is home to about 1 million people (Metropolitan Area - six counties).

Rochester was one of the first thriving cities in the United States, initially because of the fertile Genesee River Valley, which gave rise to many flour mills, and then as a manufacturing center that stimulated further rapid population growth.

The city has become known as the birthplace and home of some of America's most iconic companies, in particular, Eastman Kodak, Xerox and Bausch & Lomb (along with Wegmans, Gannett, Paychex, Western Union, French's, Constellation Brands, Stew, etc.), thanks to which the region has become a global center of science, technology, research and development.

This status was facilitated by the presence of several world-renowned universities (in particular, the University of Rochester and the Rochester Institute of Technology) and their research programs; these schools, along with many other smaller colleges, are playing an increasingly important role in the economy of Greater Rochester. Rochester has also played a key role in U.S. history as the center of some important social/political movements, especially abolitionism and the women's rights movement.

As a result of deindustrialization, strong growth in the education and healthcare sectors at the expense of elite universities and the slower decline of indigenous companies such as Eastman Kodak and Xerox (as opposed to the rapid decline of heavy industry, as in the case of steel companies in Buffalo and Pittsburgh) led to much less severe cuts than in most "rust belt metropolises".

Today, Rochester's economy is driven by technology and education (aided by a highly educated workforce, research institutes, and other strengths born in the past).

The Rochester Metropolitan Area is the fourth largest regional economic center in New York State after the New York Metropolitan Area, Buffalo, and Albany.
The gross product of the Rochester metropolitan area is $57 billion - above Albany and Syracuse and below Buffalo.

Rochester is also known for its culture, in particular, musical culture; institutions such as the Eastman School of Music (considered one of the most prestigious conservatories in the world) and the Rochester International Jazz Festival consolidate a dynamic music industry, which is considered one of the top ten music scenes in the United States in terms of concentration of musicians and music business.

It is the venue of several major festivals every year (such as the Lilac Festival, the aforementioned Jazz Festival, the Rochester Festival, and others, which attract hundreds of thousands of visitors each) and is home to several world-famous museums, such as the Strong National Game Museum and the George Eastman Museum, the oldest collection of photographs in the world and one of the largest).

The Rochester Metropolitan area is highly regarded in terms of liveability and quality of life and is often considered one of the best places in America for families due to the low cost of living, high public school ratings and low unemployment. However, there is a big difference between its inner-city component (which sometimes had the highest child poverty rate in the country) and its affluent, well-educated southern suburbs.
