I honestly don’t know who would be a fan of that mosh pit where people elbow you left and right, breath down your neck and some morons tasting the food off the display and putting it back.

Ok, so as someone who lived in South Brooklyn for about 5 years (Sheepshead Bay) I’ll provide you with some pros and cons that are specific to that area.
Pros: -Housing is cheap, you can still find a 1bd for $1,600-1,700 even though it’s becoming a rarity now. -Grocery is cheap. There are million of stores around that have fresh and quality produce. -Close to the beach and Coney Island. Even thought Brighton and Manhattan beaches are not the cleanest one, they’re still better than commuting for an hour. -Reliable and relatively fast commute. B train is running like a clockwork for most of the time and the ride itself from Sheepshead Bay to Midtown takes only 35 minutes. But it only runs on weekdays, so weekend commute on Q is long, but still reliable. -Plenty of restaurants around you offering different cuisines.
Cons: -Dominated by Russian-speaking people who tend to be morose and lack manners. -Area is dirty, there is a lack of trash cans and people contribute heavily to this problem. -Could be closer to the city. -Area became sketchy with some businesses closing and homeless/mentally ill population increasing.
