| Anyone live in Brooklyn, NYC? We're thinking about moving to Brooklyn in a few years once I'm done with school. Anyone live in Brooklyn? How do you like? How is the rent and pet-friendly options? Are their a lot of pet-friendly places (dog parks, boutiques, etc.)? Is it safe? Any recommendations for good neighborhoods I could research? |

Donating YT 11K Club Member | I live in Manhattan but I worked in Brooklyn once, in a nice area. They had nice apts. and houses and i heard the rent is better there, there's also tons of parks and friendly ppl. There are some bad areas though, you have to do your research to find the good ones

| Sorry can't help you there, most of my knowledge is about Queens. If your looking to buy, property values are insane in the good neighborhoods. Don't be surprised if a homes asking price is around 1 million. There a bunch of parks there, they are usually more of a dog run than a park though because of limited space. The following is a link for parks in BK. As far as pet boutiques go, they are all over but expect to pay more than you are in philly and the 8.375% tax rate. There is also the Yorkie Power Play Group from meetup.com, I think they they have a membership fee though. http://www.nycgovparks.org/sub_thing....html#brooklyn |

| I lived in brooklyn for 10 yrs and currently visit at least twice a month on weekends. Some of the good areas in brooklyn are Park Slope and Williamsburg. Canarsie is a very nice area also. You should visit different areas at different times of the day and night to get a feel of the enviroment. Nyc on the whole is very pet friendly and you would love it there. I can't wait to move back
