Solely based on my observation, the growth in Buffalo has been insane - advances in education, medicine, and overall culture. 

But the mainstream culture pushes alot of less capable people in the wrong direction whcih creates a huge sense of entitlement that works against them.

Landlords have a bad stigma in American culture.

The company sprayed right over top of the old formica in the kitchen, and cultured marble in the baths.

What about the standard in some cultures to always share your food with guests, even if you have little food for yourself? 

As @Jay Hinrichs @Chris Baxter and @Bjorn Ahlblad mentioned the culture has shifted so far into an entitlement mindset and supposed haves vs. have nots that I feel like we just need to do our part to change that narrative locally.

It is the culture and mindset that has to change to get ahead. 

However, I think we are are generations away from a real shift culturally especially with bigger companies and conglomerates that are still run by people that think "the internet is a fad" or something. 

The culture and lifestyle is amazing.
