Named the best low-cost areas of New York
A fairly large class of people planning a home purchase is looking for a cheap deal. But affordable housing does not mean bad housing. Localize.city and New York Post compiled a list of low-cost areas of New York where you can find decent housing.
Districts were selected for several factors: convenient infrastructure, crime rate, noise complaints, green space, friendly attitude to cyclists.
Windsor Terrace
In the southwestern part of Prospect Park, a cozy place was hidden, more like a village by the Hudson River than a Brooklyn neighborhood. There are fewer opportunities for a rich nightlife in this area than in other areas, but there is a large, lively park. Housing prices are relatively low here compared to the average price of housing in Brooklyn.
Prices for townhouses here are about $ 1,5-3 million, while in Park Slope will have to pay from $ 2-3 million to $ 20 million.
Forest hills
This area in Queens is fairly quiet, but there are plenty of places where you can buy clothes, groceries or eat out. One bedroom condominium here can cost around $ 600 thousands.
Roosevelt Island
This narrow island is technically part of Manhattan. The island is connected to the city by the metro line F and the tram. Queens and native Manhattan residents are eager to move here. Mostly in this area do not buy housing, and rent.
Bay Ridge
This district in the southwest of Brooklyn is not the most convenient for the infrastructure, but there are scenic views, affordable prices in shops and restaurants, and the average price for an apartment with one or two bedrooms is $ 354 500 and $ 599 000, respectively.
Clinton Hill
The average price per square meter in this area is about $ 1 013 and this is not the most attractive price, but being able to buy an apartment on the next avenue from Prospect Heights makes it more attractive. In addition, it is one of the greenest areas of Brooklyn.
Flushing
Here, for example, in the Tangram residential complex you can now buy a studio apartment for $625, a one-bedroom apartment for $000, a two-bedroom apartment for $685 million and a three-bedroom apartment for $000 million. You can move into the house next year.
Washington heights
To buy an apartment in Washington Heights is still considered a good deal by the standards of New York, but prices are rising. So, broker Samantha Rose Foit sold XTNXX Riverside Drive apartment for $ 2013 779 in 765, a year later they sold a similar apartment for 000 $ 936. Last year, they sold about the same apartment for $ 750 million.
Bedford park
In this area of the Bronx, you can find deals for the sale of apartments on 1-2 bedrooms from $ 200 000. From here you can get to Midtown in 45 minutes, it’s convenient to get to the subway and there is an active bus service. In addition, the presence of the Botanical Garden makes the area more attractive.
Woodhaven
This central area of Queens adjoins a large park and is one of the greenest areas of the city. The cost of housing in apartment buildings starts at about $ 600 000.
In addition, it is important to mention that in this area they are trying to implement the initiative of QueensWay, which would turn a piece of an abandoned railway into a public park.
Concourse
This area was modeled on the principle of the Paris Champs Elysees. From here it is convenient to get to Midtown as well as if you go from Inwood or Washington Hates, but housing prices are much cheaper here. So, one-bedroom co-op can be bought for $ 229 000, and a townhouse for less than $ 1 million.
