Bushwick Reviews
Rating 3.51 out of 5 166 reviews
There has been some major changes in this neighborhoods. It has become very up in coming. There has been some severe architectural and construction advancements. When I was growing up I wasn't able to go to the local parks in concern for my safety. However, there is no problem for that now. However, the only concern with the neighborhood is the cost of living as it is rising at an exponential rate.
Buschwick is great. It has lots of facilities around such as supermarkets, laundromats, train stations, hospitals, groceries, bakeries, stores, clinics, schools, public transportation. However I do think it should be a bit more safe and definitely more clean. It has really been improving lately. There are new buildings and new restaurants. I just hope that gentrification does not end up affecting us the working class who have been living there for so many years.
I was born and raised in Bushwick Brooklyn. Its close to the L and M train. There are a lot of bus stops and restaurants and stores. Its a diverse place. A lot of people speak Spanish and English. What I love about Bushwick is the art our neighborhood has. Bushwick is the heart of Brooklyn is in the middle of Brooklyn and Queens. There are a lot of public schools and parks. There are a lot of support groups, community stuff, mentors, and people who help out the ones in help. The church brings the people together and we are a community who celebrate our religion and improve our church and the church school as well. There are a pot of parades and the mass is in english and spanish or bilingual. There is Mrytle Avenue where you can buy clothing, shoes, or do your nails, and restaurants where to eat. You will never get borned in Bushwick. There is a lot of theatre productions as well. Some movie or shows have been shot in our neighborhood. Its been amazing living in this neighborhood.
