Washington Heights is so far uptown that it feels a little removed from the action, which translates into affordable rents and large apartments in predominately prewar buildings. Popular with young professionals and students, the neighborhood is vibrant, thriving, and decidedly down-to-earth. Expansive parks make it a popular place for dog owners. At its core, the neighborhood has always been diverse; throw into the mix plenty of Columbia Med School students in scrubs and off-duty cops, and that will round out the scene at many a happy hour in the Heights.
