East 47th St, East Flatbush

Most of E 47th street is filled with nice middle class homes. i know the area well since i went to school around the area for 4 years and many of my school mates lived near by. overall it's a safe area though there are gangs (mainly Crips) that are known to hang around the area. in 4 years of hang around the area I've never seen any act of violence. they are small take out restaurants scatted throughout the area and there are tire shops, supermarkets etc. overall this is a quite neighborhood suited for those looking to raise a family. there isn't any night clubs or shopping centers.
