I lived in NYC for 10+ years and moved...Fantastic! I lived in NYC for 10+ years and moved to Ventura County (we're now in MD)! We're like "Bizzaro World each others..." or something like that. We still own our condo in Brooklyn, so I can confirm that it's the place to be (we just can't give up our little piece of Brooklyn). Check out Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill and Columbia Gardens West (or whatever they're calling it now). These places are very close to Manhattan so they'll cost some $$. Red Hook was really building up when I left, so you might want to put that on your list of maybes. You can also check out Bay Ridge. I lived there for a bit. You get more for your $$, but you're farther away from Manhattan.<br /><br />Good luck on your quest! I miss Brooklyn desperately!<br /><br />Feel free to contact me if you have questions. My husband grew up in Brooklyn so he knows all about the borough.<br /><br />Oh - I also lived in Astoria for a while (I know, I was everywhere when I lived in NYC). You're looking for areas near Steinway Street. Still very nice and, at the time, a bit cheaper than Brooklyn. Don't know much about Harlem expect there are pockets that have been gentrified.<br /><br />Good luck!<br /><br />http://www.callias-corner.comE.C.
