Ridgewood Apartments for Rent
About Ridgewood Neighborhood

As rents in North Brooklyn become prohibitively pricey, millennials have flocked east of Bushwick to Ridgewood’s more affordable digs. The neighborhood has recently become home to a slew of artists, musicians, and creators of all variety, and their accompanying coffee shops, hip and cheap bars and galleries. It also has a strong immigrant constituent from countries all over the world. In classic Queens style, Ridgewood residents can enjoy the authentic taste of locales as far off as Bosnia or Tibet. With plenty of parks and a nearby extensive reservoir, Ridgewood also has a noticeably more peaceful vibe than nearby Williamsburg and Bushwick. Its creative community and DIY spaces feel in touch with Brooklyn’s pre-Starbucks artistic roots. For now, the rents are cheap and the apartments spacious and stylish.
