Buff Bay is situated
almost to the western end of Portland, It has a court house
a market and a police station. These three government
buildings seem to have been the criteria for a
full fledged town in the colonial days.
The blue mountain coffee industry is the only notable
provider of employment, however modest and seasonal it
may be, to some of the towns residents.
Buff Bay,
inspite of it's unusual name, is the second largest
town in the Portland arena. It's a well laid out
town, except for the connectivity of its
neighborhoods. Lynch
park sits to the eastern side of town and is the
cultural center. Recreational
games like soccer and cricket, dominates this parks
activities. But the occasional celebration and
performance is also handled there.
Because of its location at the entrance to a
populous interior valley, Buff Bay benefits from
the many various crops those communities
produce. The
market is the central outlet for the ground provisions and
vegetables the fertile valley produces, and becomes quite
busy on Fridays and Saturday.
The blue mountain coffee industry provides employment,
however modest and seasonal it may be, to some of the towns
residents.
Although this Buff Bay is sitting right on the shores
of the Caribbean there is no established beach provided
for its citizenry. A well managed beach with proper
safety guidelines, could help the town's economy.
If you
are looking to live in a quiet town, with mostly all a town
should have, then this is a place to
investigate.
