With about 10,000 residents calling Buffalo MN home, this is a small community with a thriving art scene. My family enjoys going to the Buffalo Community Center a few times a year to see the magnificent plays that the facility produces. We also appreciate the Buffalo Community Orchestra a couple times each year. This orchestra has more than 50 members and instruments for a full sound that can’t be beat.
As for schools, the Buffalo MN schools are great for teaching students how to succeed. The town has 10 schools as part of the Buffalo-Hanover-Montrose School District. The reviews of the schools by parents of students at these schools are raving and we are very pleased at the way in which our kids are encouraged to learn. We also appreciate how the teachers are preparing our kids for the future job market which is going to be extremely competitive.
