One of the best Neighborhoods in Brooklyn for.Young families and artistic types, younger age range, a strong sense of community, lots of opportunities for getting out, easy commute to Manhattan.
Many people expect Bushwick to be expensive because it’s so artistic and in demand. Surprisingly the median home prices currently average $851,000 and it’s one of the best places to live in Brooklyn.
Rent is around $2,800. It’s an area with a lower median household income than other neighborhoods in Brooklyn, making it more welcoming to a wider range of people.
That results in a fun neighborhood with a tight-knit community feeling. And it’s well-connected to Manhattan via public transport for work opportunities.
Street art livens up daily walks and I can’t get enough of the interesting takes on New York style pizza served in this area.
This neighborhood used to have a rather negative association with crime. Thankfully the hard work on the community’s part has led to it becoming one of the safest neighborhoods in Brooklyn today.
It doesn’t quite offer as much for families as it did at one point, but it’s still where my friends have chosen to raise their kids. The access to healthy green spaces and classes on building creative skills are a huge plus. That’s why I think it’s one of the best Brooklyn neighborhoods.
