Brooklyn monthly rentals

Living in Brooklyn

As the most populous borough in New York City, Brooklyn is home to all sorts of people and neighborhoods, including many people who want to avoid Manhattan prices. There's hip art and food in Williamsburg and Bushwick, a business district in Downtown Brooklyn, mansions in Clinton Hill, and a small-town (yet evolving) feel in Bedford-Stuyvesant aka Bed-Stuy. And that’s just naming a few neighborhoods. Housing in Brooklyn is expensive, but a studio apartment in Brooklyn Heights might be the same price as a two-bedroom apartment in East New York.

Getting around

Brooklyn has access to NYC's public transportation system, so residents can take the subway to work in Manhattan or a friend’s house in Staten Island. It's easy to walk through the borough, and bikes and scooters are also popular. Few people own cars since parking is stressful here, and most of the city is accessible via other modes of transportation.

Weather

Brooklyn, like the rest of New York City, has four distinct seasons with hot summers, cold winters, and pleasant springs and falls. It rains a few days each month throughout the year and snows at least once each winter.
