A residential community with a large namesake green space
Inwood's historically low real estate prices and natural, forested park have kept Manhattan’s northern enclave largely residential. Close to the Hudson and Harlem rivers, it’s a hilly, yet walkable neighborhood with a diverse mix of residents. Although co-op stock is limited, tangible perks keep buyers interested: “People move here because you get so much more space for your money than farther downtown,” says M. Susanna Saarinen, a resident of the area for 22 years and licensed real estate broker at Access Property Group Inc. “It’s the most affordable neighborhood in the entire island of Manhattan,” she adds, noting that the nearby greenery and easy access out of town are also draws. “It’s a very livable neighborhood. The air is a little better, it’s a bit more relaxed, and not quite as congested.”
Inwood's residential streets offer street parking for residents.

Accessible prices and a new affordable housing initiative
Prewar co-ops make up the vast majority of properties for sale, but nearly 92 percent of residents rent an apartment. “There’s practically no co-op market on the east side of Broadway,” says Saarinen. The Inwood NYC Action Plan, a $200 million city and community-led initiative, is expected to create an estimated 1,600 affordable homes in the neighborhood, as well as preserve an existing 2,500 affordable and mixed-income homes. The plan also addresses park restoration and open access to the Harlem River waterfront. “Not including the current reconstruction and new zoning regulations, the sales stock is pretty much all prewar, with only around two small condo buildings in the entire area,” says Saarinen. Compared to the rest of Manhattan, prices are much lower: Co-ops tend to run between $350,000 to $750,000 and a two-bedroom averages around $550,000. A prewar studio can go as low as $237,000. New multi-million-dollar residential developments, primarily apartments, will continue to shape the neighborhood in the coming years.

Latin American and Spanish-influenced dining
The cuisine mirrors the neighborhood’s diverse demographic and Latin American influence. Whether it’s Bocaditos Bistro for Euro-Dominican fusion, Serrano Salsa for Mexican food, Galicia for tapas, or Patacon Pisao for Venezuelan dishes, residents don’t have to look far for authentic eats. CHOCNyc, a modern pastry shop near Inwood Hill Park, is well-loved by locals and Tubby Hook Tavern is a favorite for unwinding with a burger, beer, and live music in the evenings. Most bars and restaurants are along Broadway.
Residents of the Inwood neighborhood say Galicia has amazing food and even better service.

Locally-owned shops and a year-round farmers market
“Inwood is one of those areas that I imagine ‘old New York’ was like. People really like their little mom-and-pop stores. It’s a very community-oriented neighborhood,” says Saarinen. When filling a prescription at Dichter Pharmacy, residents can also slurp down a milkshake or grab a Reuben. Part pharmacy, part old-fashioned soda shop, Dichter Pharmacy has been a central piece of Inwood for over 110 years, and even offers space for community events. Branzino, a new fish market in the neighborhood, has captured the respect of locals, and the year-round greenmarket on Isham Street draws crowds every Saturday for fresh produce. Long-standing grocery stores like C-Town, which recently expanded to a bigger space, can primarily be found along Broadway.

Home to historic sites and Manhattan’s only natural forest
Inwood Hill Park, also known as Shorakapok to the Indigenous Americans, is Manhattan’s largest and only old-growth forest. Covering nearly 200 acres, the rugged, hilly park contains hiking and biking trails, barbecuing sites, playgrounds, athletic fields and scenic river views along the promenade. At the Inwood Hill Park Urban Ecology Center, the public can learn about the park's geological and cultural history, including more about the Lenape peoples who inhabited the land. Inwood residents can tour the oldest remaining Dutch farmhouse in all of Manhattan, the Dyckman Farmhouse Museum, for free. At just 20-acres, Isham Park is another local green space, and for a 2-minute subway ride, residents can reach the historic Met Cloisters Museum nearby.
