I love how caring and dedicated public security is to ensuring residents' safety and well-being. There are tons of small private parks for kids to play when the weather gets warmer, and adults can even sit there to eat or sunbathe.

Stuyvesant Town is a welcoming neighborhood. You are isolated from the loud city streets, yet only a few minutes away from New York's bustling downtown. I have always felt safe living here because there are families everywhere. While the prices are quite high, the vibe of this neighborhood is unique compared to other areas in the city.

I would choose to live here again. Very convenient, diverse and plenty of access to outdoor play.
