Nowhere Man!
I call shenanigans...I have relatives in Rochester who have the accent....
Rochester has a nasil tone to their accent and tend to speak really fast. Buffalo has a "deez does and dem" midwest accent. They truncate words and phrases a lot like Pittsburgh. They say crik instead of creek. Ben to instead of Been to, that sort of thing. The other fact is that the schools in Buffalo are really awful. Most folks that graduate high school are functionally illiterate. Even in the suburbs.
