Shop NYC Top

Coming on the end of my lease, and want to move away from the lack of diversity that is UES… an area where the only black folk I see are pushing strollers for someone else’s kid. Moved here from the DMV so that was kind of jarring .I know the short answer is Harlem or Brooklyn.

However, it would be great to hear a more insight into specifically where within those e.g Yes, Bedstuy but Bedstuy is massive.

Note that I work in Midtown, but I’m willing to make the hike since I only have a few days in office. I have a low tolerance for bullshit and would prefer to be in an area where I don’t need to constantly be have my head on a swivel. Especially with the absurd rent we all pay.

Edit – really appreciating the replies! Summarizing a little bit it seems like the highest concentration might be in BedStuy or Harlem (makes sense). However given my last paragraph Crown Heights, Downtown BK , or parts of Harlem might be solid

Edit 2 – Damn this blew up! Glad I’m not alone in wondering this!
