"Easygoing, Diverse, Live-and-let-live, Quiet and Unpretentious"

I've lived in Kensington 10 years now and love my neighborhood. There is very little crime, the area has someone from everywhere on the planet it seems, the streets are green with trees and vegetable/flower gardens, and Prospect Park is around the corner. The F and G will bring you to Coney Island or other great neighborhoods in Brooklyn and Manhattan alike. Great for families or anyone who wants a nice, quiet, friendly spot. We are getting more restaurants lately, which is a good thing.
Pros
  • Quiet
  • Tranquil
  • Diverse
Cons
  • Poor shopping (bakery? toy store? Clothes other than bargain stores/)
  • traffic/noise along Ocean Parkway and Caton Avenues
Recommended for
  • Professionals
