[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where in Brooklyn? Brooklyn is huge. It’s like one of the top ten largest cities in America just as a borough ... some parts are lovely and neighborhoody; others feel graffiti covered and hyper urban. Depends where you are. [/quote]

I don't know where!  The office is in Brooklyn near the water/bridge, I wouldn't want to have a super long commute but don't need to live right next it it either.  The area the office was in was too urban for me. [/quote]

I ... don't think you should move to Brooklyn. [/quote]

I think OP was in downtown Brooklyn, which is like an OK downtown block in Baltimore.

I think someone who'd be happy in the Adams Morgan neighborhood would like Brooklyn Heights or Park Slope. Someone who liked the Mount Pleasant neighborhood might like Fort Greene. Williamsburg might map to Capitol Hill. Bed Stuy might be good for people who like pretty areas in D.C. that are just starting to get good lattes. [/quote]

Completely wrong![/quote]

Then could you translate Brooklyn neighborhoods into D.C. neighborhoods?

Example: To me, Capitol Hill was rough, is now fancy, is hard to park in, and is close to work for a lot of people. For me, the Brooklyn equivalent might be DUMBO, or Park Slope. But how would you translate that? [/quote]
