Batavia, NY is Not a Great Place User Rating 2 rating By Anonymous ( May 23, 2018) I don't like to be negative, but I have to be honest. I have been living in Batavia, New York for quite some time now. I have stayed hoping to see things get better because it really does have the potential to be a nice place. However, between the terrifyingly high crime rate, th ...Read More e bad schools (insanely high dropout rates and very poor graduation numbers), people who won't do any sort of maintenance or upkeep on their property, a sinking job market, and some pretty undesirable characters who live here, I have to say this is not one of the best areas in New York to call home!

If you do choose to come here you will find a few activities for fun. We have Escape-ology escape room experiences, the Jell-o Gallery, Make Time for Kids fun center for children, and my favorite, The Indigo Insight supernatural readings.

I wish I could say more positive things, but there just isn't very much good to say because there isn't very much good here. Read Less
