Apartments for Rent in Briarwood - Queens

The Briarwood neighborhood sits directly in the center of the New York City borough of Queens. The mostly residential neighborhood remains quite small and tucked away. Its close proximity to several major highways and roadways make it a convenient location for professionals to live who work in Manhattan or elsewhere in New York City. Briarwood continues to be a safe neighborhood of mostly middle-income families. The close-knit aspect and very low cost of living are what attract many new residents. The schools are very good, which encourage families with school-age children into the area. Working professionals find the inexpensive location to be ideal because of its close proximity to Manhattan. A drive on the Grand Central Parkway takes about 28 minutes with Manhattan only 14 miles away.
