Why Live in Brownsville

Brownsville is a Brooklyn neighborhood where community pride runs deep. A tight-knit community with notable natives such as Mike Tyson, Al Sharpton and Larry King, the area is quickly becoming one of the biggest socioeconomic melting pots in Kings County. The neighborhood is known for its affordable real estate, which includes two-story postwar brick rowhouses and Art Deco buildings. Many homes have covered patios, and quiet streets are lined with old trees, sidewalks and bike lanes. Local dining consists of Haitian-American fusion at Lakou Café and Trinidadian cuisine at Ali’s Roti Shop. Residents go shopping at Pitkin Avenue or pick up groceries at the Food Bazaar supermarket. The Weeksville Heritage Center provides special lectures on Black history and has two historic house museums from the 19th and 20th centuries. The neighborhood is well-connected with several bus routes and subway lines. The 10-acre Betsey Head Park has outdoor facilities such as playgrounds, running tracks and swimming pools. The Bilingual Center is ranked among the top 20% of city schools by the New York City Department of Education, and Brooklyn Collegiate Preparatory High School facilitates around 12 to 15 college visits for students before every graduation.
