Beautiful neighborhood! Very diverse, lots of restaurants, cafes and shops. Super easy access to Manhattan and downtown Brooklyn. Great subway access - 2, 3, D, A, C and G in less than 10 mins. Very diverse and accepting :)
Speaking as a Boerum Hill resident from birth, I would say that my own experience in this neighborhood is a good one. It's a very safe, moderately affordable neighborhood with a nice atmosphere. Do kind of wish things in the real estate market weren't as expensive as they are, though.
Tree-lined streets, easygoing restaurants, attractive bars, close commute to Manhattan and friendly, creative people. Singles to young families are prevalent with many long-term residents as owners.
