Overall, I've had a pretty good experience living in the Baychester area. My neighbors are super friendly and always ensure to take care of the neighborhood by keeping their property clean and checking up on their neighbors. I have been notified of significant crimes in the area, but I simply make sure to stay in at night.
Great neighborhood. Private houses. Quite. Baychester was mostly West Indian. Everybody keeps up with their house.Close to highways and trains. They keep putting these section 8 people up here now thats running down the place. People from the shelters. Its becoming. I'm starting to see strange people walking around. Right now I have a girl from the shelter that has 3 kids. No curtins but still have different men going to her. Smoking weed and drinking. My lanlord complain because they throwing the liquor bottles into her garbage because she doesn't want her landlord to see. If they continue to put these people up here, trust me Baychester will run down quick. This is a working class neighborhood.
Baychester is Safe Place to live because is located in North East Bronx Close to all Mayor Hwys I-95 Hutchinson Bronx River PKWY and Mayor Deegan Border with Westchester County and 30 min from NYC... Transportation Must Need if you choose to live in Baychester... Transportation is Slowly and it could be dangerous..
