a city in new york whose economy is pretty much screwed, and where nobody actually wants to go, due to its high crime rate. there is, however, a sort of charming quality about it which persuades people to stay. in the suburbs, of course, so you don't get shot.

A city in western New York that has nothing going for it at all.....a large city that is literally hemorraging it's citizens to other cities or the outer suburbs at the minimum.......even most of the airlines are abandoning their mainline flights to Rochester and replacing them with their little "jungle jet" feederliners!
John: Damn, this downtown area and the city in general is as deader as a doorknob!

Dave: Yeah, look around......nothing to do at all since The Mill shut down 27 years ago and all these beggars begging for money!!!

A cold boring city for people who want to grow old in their young age. A city where the extent of a night out is going to a lame ass bar and getting a hot plate. Guys are all jacked up on steriods becuase they have to make up for their half brains and personalities. Girls are all dirty arrogant NYC wannabees or washed up HS hotties turned fat. Got the rich in east and the italians on the west. Its still the place you always remember but never go back to.
Hey Philly, see that girl

Yea, what about her she is disgustingly fat.

Well, that is Tara. Remember her?

Yea, wasn't she one of the hottest whores in Gates?

Yep, its a Rochester tradition! Girls get fat and keep the attitude.

A rotting hole in New York State on the shore of Lake Ontario. So desperate for help that they're betting all their hope on a 'fast ferry' that runs to Toronto. Only thing a fast ferry is going to do is destroy their economy faster, hah!
My god, you think Buffalo is bad? Wait till you see Rochester!

A town in Upstate NY. It is a very crumby town. It is very diverse and it has a great park avenue. The girls here suck. Most of the hot ones come from suburbs like Greece, Pittsford, and East Roshester. Anyways there is a lot of violence in the cut ecspecially in the east and west side. The east side has a lot of bad latino gangs that harass people and they are known for selling drugs and stealing parts from local hondas. They usually sell them back to you painted because they are good painters. On the west side there are a lot of African American and Vietnamese gangs. The worst African Americans are located on the Dewey ave. region from what I have heard. They are known for their ruthless ways. They sell drugs but the Latino's are much more efficient. They are also known for their crappy old cars riding on 22's. Also dont get in the way of their chicken dish becuase they will defend their chicken at all costs ecspecially when they are tuning into "crunk music". The Vietnamese are located on the west side also. They sell drugs ecspecially ecstacy. That is why they have twin turbo 350z's and Infiniti's at such a young age. The white people are known for their prostitution rings. It is true the Lyell ave. region is flooded with prostitutes looking for an easy buck. Other than that it is an okay town.
Person 1: Dude what should we do for Spring Break?
Person 2. I have a buddy from Rochester he can hook us up with that pill.
Person 1: Really? Sweet! Is Rochester better that Syracuse.
Person 2: Hell yeah! They have the Rochester Rhyno's and the Buffalo Bills camp not to mention the Rochester Plate.
Person 1. Cool sounds like a plan. Let depart for Rochester in the Morning before this Vicodin kicks in.
Person 2. Dude are you alright? Dude! Dude! BILLY NO!!!
