Life in Niagara Falls

Niagara Falls, New York is a city in Niagara County. It is named for the famed waterfall on the Niagara River, where the town is located. It is right across the river from the city of Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. Both cities are named for the falls, and form an international metropolitan area. Niagara Falls has a population of about 55,000 people.

The economy of Niagara Falls is largely driven by tourism. Also, the falls provide more than enough hydroelectric power to power the town, giving it a cheap and effectively unlimited energy source. This led to the growth of industry in the town's early days. Modernly, however, tourism (with the falls being a major attraction for visitors from around the world) is the driving force of the local economy. However, this has not been enough to create real prosperity, since the departure of heavy industry. Over the last 40 years, Niagara Falls, New York has experienced severe economic hardship. However, there have been signs of improvement in recent years, and city officials and businesses are working very hard to ensure that this forward momentum continues.
