"Myrtle/Willoughby Area"
I tried to convince myself, during the 4 months I lived in Bed-Stuy, that it really wasn't that bad... That was until my apartment was broken into while I was sleeping and some kid tried to run off with our laptop and camera. That night the police kindly informed us that Bed-Stuy is a "sh*t hole" and continued to say they were surprised we hadn't been robbed yet...
Unfortunately, this place is exactly what it looks like, dirty, rundown, and sketchy. If you want a CHEAP place to live with a lot of space, make sure you keep your windows locked and watch that no one follows you home from the subway.
