Genesee County lies halfway between Buffalo and Rochester, and Batavia, the county seat, is its one city. Manufacturing was the top industry for residents over 2020-2024, at 4,242 workers, and the county's development agency counts 1 million square feet of dairy processing in Batavia. Forty-one years of property tax at the 2020-2024 median bill of $4,113 would add up to Genesee's median home value of $170,500; at US medians it would take 107 years.
