Brooklyn Overview

The most heavily populated of all of New York City's boroughs, Brooklyn stands tall and proud as a focal point of the Big Apple. With many affordable apartments in Brooklyn available to NYC locals, it's not secret as to why this area is home to so many. Comprising over seventy square miles of roadways and housing, Brooklyn is a distinct and growing locale boasting a diverse mix of residents, local businesses and long-established hot spots.

What is the history of Brooklyn?

Consolidated into New York City in 1898, spurned on largely by the completion of the historic Brooklyn Bridge several years prior, Brooklyn experienced great cultural expansion in the years that followed. The creation of institutions such as the Brooklyn Music School and the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens helped further put the borough on the map, and the 1927 unveiling of the Cyclone at Coney Island cemented the area's place in roller coaster legend for all time. The 1970's and 1980's saw a large number of Brooklyn landmarks be declared on the National Historic Register, including the almost 2,000 structures comprising Park Slope. From 2010 leading forward Brooklyn has experienced large economic and cultural growth, with an impressive influx of startup businesses and fledgling entrepreneurs flocking to the city.

How is the weather in Brooklyn?

With almost fifty inches per year of precipitation commonplace and plenty of sunshine, Brooklyn is a plant-lover's dream and very comfortable for a city of its size in terms of climate. Winters bring some snowfall but large accumulation is uncommon, while the summers tend to be hot.

How do I get around town?

Close to 60% of households own cars in Brooklyn, an overall larger amount than in most other area of New York City. Still, the subway system accounts for close to 90% of the travel to Manhattan and the other boroughs, while taxis and the city bus remain reliable old standbys for residents on the move. Walking and bicycling are also popular.

What is the Brooklyn commute like?

The Brooklyn-Queens Expressway and the Jackie Robinson Parkway help tie Brooklyn to the surrounding boroughs, with rush hour traffic typically high and what you would expect for a city of Brooklyn's size and scope. The Williamsburg, Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges also criss-cross the skylines. Waterway commuter services are also an option for Brooklyn locals, and a good option for those looking to skip the tollways and sometimes-high parking fees that go hand-in-hand with a driving commute.

What are the local media outlets?

Brooklyn Community Access Television is a long-running regional outlet, though print still reigns supreme in the area. The Brooklyn Daily Eagle, The Cabinet, NRG and the glossy Brooklyn Magazine all deliver arts, culture and current events to the city. Big Apple staples such as the New York Daily News are also a constant presence on news stands.

Why live in Brooklyn, NY?

Despite its current tag as a 'hipster haven', Brooklyn remains a hugely popular destination choice for young working professionals for good reason. Offering easy access to the rest of NYC, housing is far more affordable than Manhattan and Brooklyn's diverse population yields a truly one-of-a-kind melting pot of charm and excitement. From indie rock record stores to hip-hop-heavy nightclubs, funky fashion boutiques to world-famous pizza shops on the corner, Brooklyn apartments give residents a life in a city on the move bursting with opportunities.

What Brooklyn landmarks should I see?

The Brooklyn Bridge is an absolute must-see historic landmark, and Prospect Park is known for both its quiet beauty and occasionally raucous live music events. Barclays Center is home to the Nets and the Islanders, making it Brooklyn's #1 spot for sporting events. Thousands upon thousands of books line the halls of the Brooklyn Public Library, and the Soldiers and Sailors Arch is a sculpting marvel that combines history and national pride.

What is there to do around Brooklyn?

The Jamaica-Bay Wildlife Refuge is a great way to get close to nature just outside the confines of the city, and the local Botanical Gardens stretch for over fifty acres of scenic, flowery beauty. The New York Transit Museum offers a fascinating overview of the city's travel evolution, while local music institution Warsaw plays host to big name performers such as Joan Jett and the Eagles of Death Metal. Of course, Brooklyn is also flush with a seemingly endless supply of dive bars, restaurants and clothing stores. Simply put, if you are bored in Brooklyn then you are doing it wrong!

Any annual festivals or Brooklyn events to know?

Coney Island fittingly plays host to a large number of festivals on the boardwalk, with the yearly Mermaid Parade an always-popular draw. Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest has become such a giant event that it is often broadcast on national television, while Crown Heights takes center stage each year with its Labor Day Carnival.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Brooklyn offers a world of vacation opportunities within close driving distance, from the national monuments of Washington, DC to the watery scenic beaches of Newport, Rhode Island. The New Jersey shore is a great place to spend a weekend, as is the mountainous beauty of upstate New York hotbeds such as New Patlz and Woodstock. Take the ferry to Fire Island and dig your toes into the sand with a good book, catch a train to the Broadway productions of Manhattan's 42nd Street district, or cheer on the Yankees with a visit to the stadium, all easily accessible from Brooklyn even without the benefit of a car.

Where is the best place to move in Brooklyn?

Brooklyn is comprised of a large number of neighborhoods, often ethnically diverse, featuring famously mentioned areas like Brighton Beach, Bushwick, Williamsburg and Park Slope. From Bayridge to Bensonhurst, Brooklyn remains a melting pot of cultures and heritage, offering a great living experience for practically every age, economic bracket and career needs. So what are you waiting for? Start your search for the perfect new place to call home among the many options in Brooklyn apartments on ApartmentHomeLiving.com today, and start seeing what life in the Big Apple is truly all about!

Love living in Brooklyn. I used to live in Manhattan and that was way to expensive. Moved out to Prospect park area and love it. Easy train ride into Manhattan, and all the stuff I need is in the area. I'd love having a great steak restaurant nearby, but I guess beggars cant be choosers. lol
