Prospect Heights.

Worth it, says Antonina. Not only is it one of the best places to live in Brooklyn, it also has an old-school Brooklyn panache you’d be hard-pressed to find in the rest of the borough.

Where Prospect Heights appears on New York Dearest

It's on 1 of my list. Each entry below is what I wrote about it there, with my verdict on that list, the fullest first.

Worth it

One of the best Neighborhoods in Brooklyn for.Growing families and everyone else, supportive community organizations, activities for every age range, beautiful architecture, classic old-fashioned Brooklyn style

It’s rare to find a neighborhood in Brooklyn that has something for families with kids yet plenty to do for the young professional crowd.

Prospect Park has it all! Not only is it one of the best places to live in Brooklyn, it also has an old-school Brooklyn panache you’d be hard-pressed to find in the rest of the borough.

At a median home price of $952,000, it’s one of the more affordable neighborhoods in Brooklyn.

You can stroll Washington Avenue and pick out a fancy new restaurant to try. Or you can spend a lazy Sunday watching your kids get active at one of the numerous children’s play centers.

Access to transit and a very walkable neighborhood layout also makes this one of the best places to live in Brooklyn.

I feel like it doesn’t quite have as many parks, scenic views, or architectural marvels as other parts of the borough. But the median rent of $3,400 makes it more affordable than other parts of the city.

Worth it, says Antonina. Been? Say if you agree.
