A studio or 1 bedroom would be fine. How is street parking in the city? I would appreciate any feedback or advice. I'm excited about the potential move. I have definitely fallen hard for Buffalo!

Hello and welcome! we could use as many transplants as we can get! tell your friends lol.
I know you said downtown and Allentown But I decided to list all of the areas nearish to those areas so you know what your options are (although im male I would feel comfortable living as a single female anywhere within the green lines)
Luckily your budget will allow you to afford a studio or one bedroom in almost any area of the city. (the fargo estates / cottage district will allow you to come in under budget even and its walking distance to allentown with great architecture. A bit rough around the edges still though, but with normal common sense you would be fine.)
If you're looking for a large apartment building all of the areas have them throughout but allentown and downtown have a lot more than the EV or cottage district
Parking isnt really much of an issue in buffalo except for downtown M-F 9-5 I have lived with street parking during and for 3 years after college now with no issues whatsoever (except the alternate parking is a bit of a pain at times)
Good luck with the potential job/move and let us know if you have any other questions
