bay ridge is a mix for sure. i guess you are looking to save on rent and stay by the R train. It is definatly not the slope.

I've been in Bay Ridge my whole life. I don't worry about cool. I worry about working out. In the last decade or so, the number of good gyms in Bay Ridge has plummeted. This really bugs me. I built a gym in my apartment, but I can't get enough members to join. If you're looking to get pumped up, you might want to look somewhere other than Bay Ridge. Also, if you're rich and important, move to Garden City.

ok 4:37 post was hilarious, and I'm not sure if it was serious or not.

In my opinion Bay Ridge is a very livable neighborhood for families, etc. It has great shopping and comparable amenities to Brooklyn's most expensive neighborhoods.

If I ever start considering moving to the 'burbs, Bay Ridge is on my short list. Its certainly a better option than Long Island or Jersey.

I'm on Shore Road over looking the harbor. I open my windows and get cool breezes...am I 'cool'?

In hindsight, this is such a ridiculous topic. I can't believe some one, 'ED', posted this. And then not to follow up on his OP. It leads me to believe that 'ED' is a troll, or that he headed to Bay Ridge and died of 'uncoolness'

Recognizing that places like Park Slope are pretty sweet, pretty and are bustling with many great restaurants, shops (even though I don't buy anything from there), and beautiful tree lined blocks and a sweet park, I've been a Bay Ridger for probably 25 years+ and purchased a building in Park Slope over a year ago. Although many foreigners to Bay Ridge like to poo poo it for coolness factors and distance to city and the ass-train, it's one of my favorite neighborhoods in Brooklyn, bar none. It really kind of is like a small town, the people are *real*...mixed like no other place i've ever seen in NYC, beautiful streets, walkable, quiet one block, nice and noisy on the next...As far as people go, there are no shortage of guidos (generally nice/secretly-bright/exposed-chain/slick haired Italians), arabs (stealthy/lebanese/palestinian/middle-eastern families and kids who are hard to distinguish from Puerto Ricans/et al, and being Lebanese, I know!), Greeks (see: Arabs), and tons of Irish and Norwegians (there's actually a Norwegian parade every year). People are nice, hospitable, maybe *slightly* on the older side (29-45)...and the hood is above all points I can think of: safe. "New Yorkers live in Bay Ridge" is very true. And remarkably affordable, all things compared.

The Century 21 in Bay Ridge is WAY nicer than the one in Lower Manhattan.

Need I say more?

Posted by: 11217 at July 21, 2008 5:20 PM in response to Anyone cool living in Bay Ridge??

Century 21 rules!!

And 'ED' if you decide to 'troll' the neighborhood. Karam on 86th Street and 4th Avenue (around the corner from Century) has the best Mid East food. It's smalll, tight, and the Chicken Kabab is soooo good. The place is so uncool, it's packed! I love it so much, I once went there 10 days in a row. I am so cool.

I wouldnt really call park slope "cool"

its pretty dorky.

most "cool" kids avoid park slope unless they're married.

Didn't you hear, Santa...dorky IS cool these days!

I finally fit in!!!

Exactly who are the cool people, ED? If living around cool people is your only concern, go were ever it is the cool people tell you they live.

That said, I think anyone who recognizes what Bay Ridge has to offer is pretty cool.
