Williamsburg

It's difficult to talk about Brooklyn without mentioning Williamsburg.

Welcome to Williamsburg

It's difficult to talk about Brooklyn without mentioning Williamsburg. This North-Brooklyn neighborhood is a blend of industrial and modern vibes, sometimes loud and grungy, but in the most charming way. It's a haven for artists and a heaven for foodies, shaped by its residents and constantly changing. If you haven't experienced Williamsburg, you haven't experienced Brooklyn.
 
New condo developments with a wide range of amenities and increased housing demand in recent decades have kept the cost of most properties in Williamsburg within the upper end of most budgets. Luxury units in full-service buildings have ramped up their lists of amenities to compete for residents, while smaller buildings and condo boards have chosen to self-manage or limit common spaces to keep costs down. You'll find a mix of both.
 
The L train into Manhattan is a lively 10-20 minute commute. McCarren Park, a 30-acre park in West Williamsburg, is a popular gathering spot for the neighborhood. You can spend an afternoon at Domino Park and watch the sunset over the East River. There's no shortage of dining and entertainment options in Williamsburg. While the cost of living may be high, the convenience and diversity of what this iconic neighborhood has to offer are truly unmatched.
