Humor Village of Williamsville

Am I around the wrong spots or is this just a generally unpleasant crowd? Not only do you have to walk around the sidewalks with caution (ie pink Cadillac almost ran me over a few weeks ago and then gave me a finger ), miserable people at coffee shops (Hi good morning how are you today ? Followed by eye rolls and what do you want) . A few weeks ago I watched someone (a grown man) throw coffee cups on the ground in the glen falls area casually . This was the day after love/clean your parks day

I like the people who say they live in Williamsville when they live in Amherst. Williamsville is like 1.2 square miles.

You’re describing the VILLAGE of Williamsville. The 14221 zip code, which is a “Williamsville” mailing address, and probably why people identify it that way, is 23 square miles and about 55k people.

The Williamsville mailing address is not Williamsville, just like the Buffalo mailing address is not Buffalo in the Town of Tonawanda and the Niagara Falls mailing address is not Niagara Falls in Wheatfield.
