"Not for tourists, visually appeasing"
As far as shopping and eating in this area, don't expect much unless you are a huge proponent of Popeye's and Footlocker. However, there are highlights to be had - just as in every New York neighborhood. There are many Caribbean eateries, and many cater to vegans, though I doubt there are a ton living in the area. Crown Heights is one of those neighborhoods that is slowly being gentrified as residents are outpriced from neighborhoods like Park Slope, so cafes and bars are beginning to spring up.
- access to the lovely Prospect Park, Brooklyn Botanical
- low rents
- absolutely no good takeout
- constant traffic jams in front of all liquor stores
