Brehs mentioning Flatbush in here... I always felt safe living in Flatbush. I lived near Brooklyn College and the Junction BTW.
I got robbed once in 2006 when I was a teenager on Glenwood Road by some teenagers and catching someone trying to break into my apartment though the window, I didn't come across much crime.
A always assumed this happened in every hood in NYC not just Flatbush
I went to PS152 for elementary and IS 33 and Bed Stuy and it was kind of an culture shock when I went to 33. Bed Stuy felt like the real hood where's Flatbush felt like an middle class neighborhood. Among 90s babies Flatbush has an rep as an safe hood, in High School some nikka said "nikkas in Flatbush go Chruch on sundays and shyt"
IMO BK has been chill since the late 2000s, only recently has it started to get crazy again.
Flatbush/Canarsie/Flatlands = Safe
ENY/Brownsville = real hood
Bed Stuy depends on what part you live in![]()
Depends on what part of Flatbush, remember crips hit that area heavy. Bed Stuy is identified but I still see a lot of fukkery especially recent like you said. That sweet 16 that got shot up a couple weeks ago has white people walking past there every day. Notice we ain't even speak on Coney Island and those rowdy bunch


Decepts could have fukked those guineas up in a minute for murdering Yusef Hawkins, but nah go and terrorize the black kid with a new polo jacket on instead. fukking clowns.
Decepts was active back then and had no problem terrorizing other black folks who was just as poor as them all over Brooklyn and the rest of NYC. But you ain't hear shyt about them bringing it to Bensonhurst.



My mans was telling me how he told his PO after he killed Foot that he was gonna turn himself in, but he to get a couple of other nikkas outta here first.
