"A Goregous "Southtown" of the Beautiful Erie County of Upstate NY"

Part of exquisit Erie County in upstate NY and located southeast of the town of Buffalo, Orchard Park is a pleasant place that is home to more than 29,054. It's considered a “Southtown” because it's in the southern part of the county, and has a village that's also named Orchard Park.

In Orchard Park, in addition to safety and wonderful commodities, you can find ample amounts of exciting and wonderful culture (the Quaker Arts Festival, an art and crafts show that takes place outdoors each year), music (free concerts in the Sunmmer at the Pavilion of the Middle School, thanks to the Orchard Park Arts Counsil), and food (its famous Taffy's Hot Dog Stand, which is on US Rt 20, 240 & 277---as well as Eckl's Restaurant, which made famous the Kummelweck rolls, and has a Tim Hortons (a famous Canadian restaurant, which has unique coffee and donuts, and is the 3000 location of Tim Hortons, which are all over Canada (not too far away and easily reachable by car).

Here in Orchard Park you can enjoy golf at the Harvest Hill Golf Course, learn about Quaker religion at the Quaker Meeting House, have a fun night at Milligan's Pub, grab ice cream at the Cold Stone Creamery, and find fun for the whole family with pizza and games at the unforgettable amusement and entertainment arcade house, Bounce Magic (it's along the lines of Chuck E. Cheese).

No matter what, I'm sure you'll have fun in Orchard Park, NY: which is very affordable and very safe, has great schools (Orchard Park Central School District---top quality school system) and more! You might not even want to leave! Come and see for yourself the next time you're in upstate NY what makes Orchard Park NY a very special place to be (I bet you won't regret it).
