Affordable neighborhoods in New York City that also have a high quality built-in infrastructure are hard to come by. Thankfully for us, Localize.city, the website that provides holistic insights on NYC addresses, has created a list of the top 10 relatively affordable neighborhoods in NYC that have a lot of different factors going in their favor.

In creating their list, Localize.city considered a variety of factors including commute times to major employment hubs, the crime rate, whether the neighborhood has farmers markets, and access to parks, among other factors.

Topping that list is Windsor Terrace in Brooklyn. Localize.city analysts and urban planners noted the neighborhood’s “leafy streets,” access to the F and G trains, the bike-friendly streets, the Windsor Terrace Food Coop and Bartel-Pritchard Square farmers’ market, and access to Green-Wood Cemetery as the major contributing factors toward the neighborhood clinching the pole position. The median rent for a one-bedroom apartment in this neighborhood is about $2,325/month.
