Park Slope

A serene, residential oasis bordering Prospect Park, Park Slope is a historic gem of a neighborhood. With gorgeous brownstones, plenty of green space, and a low crime rate, it's a classic NYC neighborhood.

At a Glance

Park Slope has a tranquil, easygoing vibe and can almost feel suburban. Strollers and children of all ages are a constant presence on sidewalks, as are shoppers patronizing local boutiques and dog walkers heading up to the park. Residents are Brooklynites through and through and tend to be socially conscious, artistically minded, and committed to their community. At night, a casual restaurant scene comes alive. For anyone looking for a night out, there are plenty of beer gardens and wine bars to patronize, especially in the South Slope, but don’t go looking for dance clubs.

The Mood

Laid-back and unpretentious, Park Slope is a place where you get to know your neighbors.

Heart of the Neighborhood

Prospect Park defines the neighborhood. Kids, bikers, runners, dogs, and residents of all ages can be found enjoying its 526 acres of green space.

Neighborhood Quirk

Much of Park Slope's housing stock was built shortly after the invention of the jigsaw in 19th century, so many homes feature ornate, carved woodwork.

Best Perk

There is a pervasive sense of calm that makes Park Slope a relaxing place to come home to. The streets are wide, shady, and quiet, and the sky is a little bigger here.

Biggest Downside

Park Slope is far from Manhattan. Depending on where in the neighborhood you live, commutes to Midtown can be as long as 45 minutes.

By the Numbers

Although Park Slope brownstones are some of Brooklyn's most expensive real estate, easily commanding $3 million or more, prewar co-ops and rentals in the area are usually listed at much more reasonable prices.
