[quote=Anonymous]Is uptown really the only place to consider when having kids in NYC? I absolutely love Tribeca (and know there are obviously a lot of kids there) but walking around... I just don't know if it's the best place to really put down roots. My DH and I are fairly social -like to go out (when it's safe) and try good restaurants, etc. The thing that concerns me about Tribeca is that it doesn't seem great for older kids. The schools are great until 5th grade, the children's classes in the area are good for babies, etc. but the school and after school activity options for older kids are not as great. UWS is wonderful but feels a bit... commercialized? Not as "cool"? (can't believe I typed that out). For those of you who know the areas, where did you decide to stay/why and what do you recommend?
