About Harlem

Harlem's strong sense of community comes from the shared love of music, food, and culture among its residents. It has a rich history as the birthplace for the Harlem Renaissance, where African-American artwork thrived, which led to a subsequent inflow of African-American businesses. Now, the more ge...

Harlem is a lovely neighborhood. There’s plenty to do, whatever you’re looking for, and it feels like real people live here. Downtown often feels like it’s all tourists and students, but Harlem really feels like a community.
Reviewed by Metropolitan Museum of Art Employee living at The Jerome
I lived on 116th and St. Nicholas. It's a scruffy neighborhood with colorful characters scattered about, but in general it's clean, friendly and beautiful. Great historical character combined with fairly priced chic and trendy dining make Harlem, south-central Harlem to be specific, a wonderful place to spend a few years. I would gladly raise my kids up there.

Up and coming, with lots of new coffee shops and bars, though still block-by-block in terms of safety.

No nearby grocery stores, a lot of trash, not safe area, mice

Close to B, C, and 2, 3 trains. Fairly close to the A and D train as well. Lots of bus lines as well. Difficult to get to Queens or Brooklyn. Easy to get anywhere in Manhattan (TriBeCa is about a 30 minute train ride or less). Great location if you're working in the Bronx. Not a ton of restaurants and bars in close walking distance (10 minutes or less) but more options if you're willing to walk a bit farther (about 20 minutes) or get on subway/bus. Safety is a bit of a concern very late at night (11 and on) if you're by yourself.

- Not close to campus
- New restaurants popping up
- Not a great grocery option yet (though WF moving in soon)
- Cheap rents for nicer apartments

Definitely up and coming, but a lot of potential. It is also much safer than it was a few years ago and seems to be continuing that trend.
