Getting around once driving gets harder
Main Street is walkable in places, but most errands and medical appointments in and around Williamsville still mean driving. Build a ride plan early: who drives, what happens in winter, and what the backup is. Countywide transportation options are listed by the Erie County Department of Aging.
