Niche Reviews 
Established in the 1830s, Brooklyn, New York's Cypress Hills neighborhood features a diverse population and entrance to the world-famous Cypress Hills Cemetery. The final resting place for famed actress Mae West and record-breaking baseball player Jackie Robinson of the Brooklyn Dodgers, most of the cemetery lies in Queens, New York, which borders the northeast Brooklyn community. More than a dozen mass transit bus lines pass through this revitalized neighborhood, making its houses and condos for rent convenient for travel to midtown Manhattan, about 11 miles away. Angela's Pizzeria, a family-owned tradition in the Cypress Hills neighborhood, keeps locals happy with its crispy slices and robust calzones. Rico Pollo II delights its neighbors with well-seasoned rotisserie chicken and other Dominican and Latin American dishes. The decor, atmosphere, and Caribbean and Latin influences at Carro Cafe draw locals who enjoy meals, drinks, such as coconut mojitos, and nightlife at the venue. Locals gather, stroll, and celebrate the outdoors at Highland Park on Jackie Robinson Parkway and work out at the YMCA a few blocks away.

Moved here a year ago, and I would describe Cypress Hills as up and coming. Live off of the Cypress Hills J train stop. Highland park is good and the neighborhood is DEFINITELY changing, in a good way. New buildings going up/being renovated. Need more restaurants and food options though.

I love the culture of my neighborhood. The people here are hardworking and kind. It is not considered a great neighborhood. There is high crime. But the people who are good and do good make up for it. It has to be experienced rather than heard about.

My experience in Cypress Hills in my opinion is amazing. I have lived in Cypress Hills for almost three years now and it's probably one of the best neighbors I have lived in. The community is great and very supportive. My siblings attend the local schools in the neighborhood and every day when I pick them up after school the school staff is always so kind and respectful. The school's holiday celebrations are also a blast to attend. Despite the glowing review I am giving my neighborhood one thing that I would love to be improved the upkeep of trash around certain areas like the near/under the train station.

I have lived in Cypress Hills my entire life and have seen the steady decline of the area. The area is full of renters who contribute to the neighbor negatively by selling drugs and committing petty crimes. These low lives are pushing home owners to sell their homes as the neighborhood is no longer safe
