I don't want to pay $2600 for a 500 square foot shithole just so I can be in ManFUCKINGhattan. What are the more affordable, non-ghetto neighborhoods worth living in in Brooklyn? I see some nice apartments in new buildings in Williamsburg for far less than they'd go in MFH. Living in a newer building would be awesome.

Williamsburg is about as expensive as parts of Manhattan

Well, then, fuck. Any other ideas? Want to commute to Manhattan but don't want to pay Manhattan prices to live in an old shoebox with roaches and a window AC unit. But if I lived in Bushwick I'd probably get stabbed once per week.

TCR. New construction in Williamsburg is going for Manhattan prices. Old dilapidated shit buildings still rent cheaper, but not by much.

i think stuff further from the subways, and further out on the L (near grand st) definitely rent for far cheaper than MFH; lots of the housing stock is just sps.

anything and everything on the L is now overrated and overpriced. not worth it to live in Bushwick or East New York for those prices. might as well live in Jackson Hts, Sunset Park, or Woodside for less money and less crime.

my brother has lived in ridgewood (dekalb), bushwick (jefferson st), and east w.burg (grand st) and came to a similar conclusion. he's tired of the hipster bullshit too.

i wasn't sure where the cutoff was. at grand st my bro was a short walk away from the hipster stuff near the closer subway stops and there were a bunch of warehouses/industrial spaces separating his place points deeper in bushwick, so it seemed like an apt description. there's a pretty huge difference between the grand st area and the subway stops deeper into bushwick, at any rate.

yeah, i used to live off the montrose stop. i was just scoffing at your use of "east w.burg" bc that term is promoted by realtors. but imo, bushwick doesn't start until the morgan ave L stop.

cobble hill and carroll gardens and dumbo are among the neighborhoods as expensive as manhattan. But at least they're nice. Williamsburg is overrated and overpriced as fuck.

I think you can probably get more for your money in yorkville or midtown east than williamsburg nowadays.
