Brownsville, Brooklyn consistently ranks as one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in NYC for violent crime, but is it really that bad? I take a walk through the notorious neighborhood and show that there is much more to the area than meets the eye. I finish the walk by visiting the newly opened Villain's Hideout Pizza Bar for some great food and company!
From Wikipedia:
"Brownsville is a residential neighborhood located in eastern Brooklyn in New York City. The 1.163squaremile (3.01 km2) area that comprises Brownsville has 58,300 residents as of the 2010 United States Census. The neighborhood's boundaries are unclear, but it is generally bordered by Crown Heights to the northwest; Bushwick and Cypress Hills to the north; New Lots to the east; Canarsie to the south; and East Flatbush to the west.
Founded in its current incarnation in 1858, initially a settlement composed of Jewish factory workers, Brownsville underwent a major demographic change in the 1950s that saw an influx of AfricanAmerican and Latino residents. Since then, it has consistently held one of the highest poverty and crime rates of any neighborhood in New York City."
Corrections
At 1:23, I'm unsure if William Suydam declared bankruptcy.
At 5:36, Mike Tyson did not grow up in Van Dyke Houses, he grew up at 178 Amboy Street.
