"Not bad for a brand new newyorker"
I lived on this street for few months. As usually in NY and Queens parking is not a selling feature but having everything so close it worth to live there. There are lots of corner stores and laundry shops. The street is fairly clean but pretty noisy. It's a street with lots of trees and nice people; lots of europeens. The traffic can be pretty annoying at times but overall it's ok.

"Fairview gets thumbs up"
Fairview Ave is runs from Cleveland park and ends at Forest Ave. Cleveland park is nice and large, often a little crowded with families and dogs. Where Fairview runs into Forest ave is a stop for the M train. You can use it to connect to the L train at Myrtle/Wycoff. The station is funky and kind of old, and underneath is a good restaurant: Bosna Express. If you eat here try the Bosna Burger. It’s halfway between a gyro and a burger, and got a good review in the Village Voice.
