Nyc Safest Neighborhoods
Nyc Safest Neighborhoods
Im moving to nyc in about three weeks and need a safe spanish neighborhood near yonkers. Where is good?
I would like to be not far from the city and in a neighborhood that is relatively safe and has a large spanish speaking population. Can anyone recommend some place? Possibly with good nightlife and an age range of 20-40 mostly?
The only neighborhood I can think of is Kingsbridge (in the Bronx). It’s also not the safest neighborhood either though there are pockets within that are okay.
It is close to Yonkers (via the “1″ subway to Van Cortlandt Park along Broadway and the Bee Line “1″ bus to Yonkers). There is a large Latino contingency there…usually on Broadway and Kingsbridge Road. There is major shopping nearby (Target – W. 225th Street in Marble Hill)
The nearby nightlife is on Fordham Road called “X Bar”…salsa, hip-hop, reggaeton. If you can find a place near Bailey Avenue north of 238th Street. or along the reservoir on Sedgwick Avenue, you should be okay.
Kletzky murder ripples into family life across NYC
“Stranger danger” lectures were being held through a shocked and sickened city Thursday after Leiby Kletzky, 8, who set out to walk home alone from camp for the first time in one of Brooklyn’s safest neighborhoods, was found murdered and dismembered.
