I have answered the question over and over. I am Jewish and grew up in NYC and WNY. I am very familiar with the culture and differences in Jewish culture between Brooklyn and WNY. In my experience, Brooklyn is infinitely better for Jewish culture. If I could live my life over and as a Jew, I wish we had never left NYC. I have nothing further to add, but feel free to keep posting links on here.
I’m not talking about the differences either of those places. I’m referring to other aspects of the Jewish community in WNY or Upstate NY. Look at my question from the perspective of educating people about people, places and things in regards to the Jewish community.
Also, what is ironic is that many of the reports of antisemitism in NY State are occurring in Brooklyn, which is due to the high population and in relation to the Hasidic population there.

From the city's municipal site: "We are the only synagogue in Cortland County. We are a small, eclectic congregation, serving those of Reform, Conservative, and Orthodox traditions, as well as students and faculty at SUNY Cortland. We hold regular services except in the summer and offer a Sunday School for youth."
