The city of Niagara Falls is the third-ranked city in the state for those under the most financial stress. That's according to a new report by state comptroller Thomas DiNapoli's office.
Dinapoli's system takes a look at local governments based on nine financial factors to create a fiscal stress score for 2017. The city of Niagara Falls scored a 77 out of 100, putting it in the "significant fiscal stress" category.
Meanwhile Buffalo scored a 12 and has no designation for any fiscal stress.
