Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Our neighborhood is residential and mostly quiet, with great neighbors. We've lived here for 6 years and wouldn't want to live anywhere else in NYC. Since the late 1930s, the neighborhood has been a major cultural center for Brooklyn's African American population. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedford%E2%80%93Stuyvesant%2C_Brooklyn
