About The Region

The strategic location of our main office in Jamestown, NY, allows our employees to work hard during the day and yet maintain the balance between a personal and professional life. Located in western New York, Jamestown is ideal if you want to avoid long, tiring commutes to and from work. Jamestown is the home of the Roger Tory Peterson Institute and the Robert H. Jackson Center, which has been founded to honor Jamestown lawyer and U.S. Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson, lead prosecutor at the Nuremberg trials. The world-renowned Chautauqua Institution, a beautiful lakeside cultural and educational retreat which hosts U.S. Presidents and other political figures, authors, scholars, and entertainers every summer, as well as offering a variety of lifetime learning classes and a wide variety of recreational activities, is just 15 minutes away.

The variety of recreational activities available in western New York is virtually unlimited and includes golfing, yachting, fishing, horseback riding, skiing and antiquing. There's even an annual rodeo. There are many opportunities to enjoy and even participate in community art festivals and theater, dance, and musical performances. In fact, Jamestown, also the birthplace of Lucille Ball and the home of the 10,000 Maniacs, has been rated one of the top ten small arts communities in the country. Moreover, Golf Digest has rated Jamestown as one of the top small-city golfing communities in the country. Yet minutes away from downtown Jamestown, you could be hiking in the pristine wilderness of Allegheny National Forest, canoeing in Kinzua Reservoir, exploring the underground caves at Panama Rocks, skiing at one of three ski resorts, or sailing on Jamestown's own 17-mile, glacially formed Chautauqua Lake.

Not least among the advantages associated with this region are the low cost of living and the great public school system for individuals with children. Individuals looking to balance an outdoor life with bright lights and big-city entertainment are surprised to find that they are only two hours from Cleveland and Toronto and less than three hours from Pittsburgh. Even closer are Erie and Buffalo.
