What it’s like
The place. Angola is a small village in Erie County, and most of the people who live here are homeowners, a larger share than across the county as a whole. Household incomes run above the county's, and fewer residents live below the poverty line than you might expect for a place of this size. Residents tend to be older than in many towns, and a smaller share hold a four-year degree. Winters are cold and very snowy, with January the coldest month, while July brings warm, comfortable highs and the year brings a fair amount of rain and melted snow.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by manufacturing, shops and professional and business services. Across Erie County, some of the largest workplaces are Kaleida Health, the University at Buffalo and Erie County Medical Center. Jobs across the county slipped slightly last year, and unemployment there is about where it stood a year earlier. A modest number of residents work from home.
Things to do. Wendt Beach Park is a park in or beside town, and Eighteen Mile Creek and Cattaraugus Creek are both rivers a short drive away. Farther afield, a longer drive brings you to the Buffalo AKG Art Museum, the Buffalo Zoo and the Niagara River, all well known places to spend a day.

Natural hazards
- Cold wavesRelatively moderate
- Winter weatherRelatively moderate
FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Angola’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, very low. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Erie County and the Buffalo-Cheektowaga, NY metro.
