"Brooklyn's Next neighborhood"

I've lived here a little over 3 years. The neighborhood has definitely changed. I've never felt unsafe, although I don't go south of Atlantic Ave. Friendly neighbors who watch out for each other. Really affordable compared to other neighborhoods especially if you want to buy a place; there's a lot of upside in this neighborhood as it grows. New places are popping up and there's an art gallery called Norte Maar that's on Pine street (they have cool events happening all the time)
Pros
  • Highly diverse population
  • Amazing park
  • Friendly local library
  • Very affordable housing
Cons
  • No upscale or trendy stores
