Brooklyn is the most populous of the five boroughs and over 2.5 million people live there. In fact, if it were a city of its own it would be the fourth most populous city in the USA. (It was once its own city, before it merged with New York in 1898). It is located on the western side of Long Island and the East River waterfront offers some truly gorgeous views of the Manhattan skyline.
There are many advantages to living in Brooklyn, including the lower average rent – which means that you will be able to afford a larger apartment with more amenities including laundry, dishwashers and private outdoor space. This neighborhood is experiencing a period of growth and rebirth and the art, theatre, music and culinary scenes are thriving.
There are many funky independent art galleries, unique restaurants and cafes, quirky museums, pubs serving craft beer and locally owned boutiques. The Brooklyn Museum has some fantastic collections of Western and non-Western art and Pierogi is a hip art space in Williamsburg that features illustration, photography and drawing. When it comes to independent boutiques you can check out Mociun, which is a Williamsburg store that sells jewelry designed by the owner, as well as other crafts from artisans. In God We Trust is another quirky boutique shop with retro-inspired clothing. It’s an exciting and beautiful place to live, with so much to see and do.
Brooklyn has a dazzling array of foods from all over the world, so bring your appetite. For fantastic Jewish delicatessen food inspired by our Canadian neighbors in Montreal, check out Mile End in Boerum Hill where you will find Montreal-style cured brisket and deliciously chewy bagels.
