i lived in NY for 8 months last year and loved it, lived in flatbush in BK, was a bit far out, but dirt cheap kind of on the edges of ghetto, but i had no issues, not much going on there tho, just fried chicken, liquor stores and nail bars. moved to bushwick which was awesome, a little bit further east from williamsburg, so not so hipster. if you're on a bike you can be in midtown manhattan in half an hour, and williamsburg in about 10 mins. rents much cheaper than bburg too. i wish i could go back. have fun!
