    "As with any NYC neighborhood, there are occasional random acts of crime and violence. Just the other day I witnessed an assault while walking with my three-year-old. My family and I are always very cautious with passers-by on the sidewalk. Other than that we love the neighborhood."

    "I’ve lived in this neighborhood for 3 years with my partner, our pup, and our 14 month old daughter. My partner grew up in this neighborhood as well! The neighborhood took a minute to grow on me but now I absolutely love it! Great family neighborhood with something for everyone. Parks everywhere!! 2 dog parks we frequent regularly (one right by the water) and only a few blocks from our favorite place in the city, Central Park. Lots of restaurants and take out/delivery options. Really the heart of Manhattan so we are close to everything. Close to classes for my daughter and museums (MoMa is a super short walk). Trader Joe’s on UWS is quick by train, Whole Foods at Columbus Circle, and Amish Market is in the neighborhood for last minute needs. Super busy and sometimes loud nightlife is only downside. The farther west you go - can get a little sketchy. But pretty awesome all around!"
