I meant Flatlands. I don't go anywhere outside of their.

Lower East Side (legit feels like its still in the 70s).
Jackson Heights just cause I spent the first 20 years of my life there. It's changed quite a bit since I moved out tho.
Astoria
Upper west side
Harlem
Greenpoint

This city really takes its toll on me quite often but I love it.

As gentrified as the LES is, it's still very gritty which I think is cool. If you took a random American tourist and placed them there without providing any context, they would probably think it's a run down area

Aren’t most of those neighborhoods boring?

That would be like saying all of Manhattan below 96th street plus a large chunk of North Brooklyn is boring.

Yea but manhattan caters to everything. There’s a difference in hanging out in the upper west side and upper east side compared to hanging out on 34th, east village and soho.

According to the NYPD map. South Brooklyn starts at Eastern Pkwy. Awkward right?

Which means Canarsie, Flatbush, East Flatbush, Canarsie are all included

The UWS/UES still have a lot of businesses catering to non-wealthy. I used to go to the Halal Guys in the UWS, for instance

Avenue D hell yea.

But Avenue D actually is the hood lol. One of the only hood blocks in lower Manhattan I can think of. I was thinking more like the regular LES blocks without any projects

Canarsie borders the water so it makes sense in a sense, but I would never think of it as South Brooklyn

I think of South Brooklyn as being all the neighborhoods South of Flatbush that are on the R, N, D, F, and Q trains.

I use to work in channel. There is nothing for anybody on Park/5th and Madison. You have to walk all the way to third but Upper East Side is arguably one of the lamest areas in the entire city.

Upper West Side I feel more cozy in the 90s and 100s. There is nothing for me to do in the 70s and 80s.

Just going by the NYpD guidelines If what is considered North and South cause Red Hook is also Brooklyn South but there is nothing South about Red Hook.

Yeah the area I was talking about is Amsterdam and 95th, while I'm sure it's expensive to live there it doesn't feel like a super rich lame area.
