"This picturesque suburb in Monroe County, with a recorded population of 36,633 in 2023, has excellent schools, charming neighborhoods, and plenty of green spaces for outdoor adventures. Not to be confused with the U.K. "Nightlife Capital" coastal resort town, this Brighton is located just south of Rochester. Residents can easily reach Rochester's reinvented downtown neighborhood thanks to Brighton's central location; yet the town is isolated just enough to preserve its quaint suburban vibes, away from the hustle and bustle of busier streets."
"You'll find public art in unexpected places, like abstract sculptures at the gas station. The Quicklee's at Twelve Corners, a local shopping mall, proudly displays artist Albert Paley's "Compression" sculpture out front. Not too unusual a sight, being so close to Rochester's happening arts scene. Rochester has the George Eastman Museum, housing photography and film collections, as well as the Memorial Art Gallery, with impressive works spanning 5,000 years of history."
