    Hi, first time poster here. I just retired at 65 and am looking for the best neighborhood in Brooklyn to spend my senior years. All of my friends say Brooklyn Heights is where I will find a lot of like minded (and aged) people. Any thoughts? Are there lots of geriatric services? What about loud parties and the like? Not to sound my age, but I would rather not hear that sort of thing all the time. Thanks in advance for your replies.

    Jack, not to sound forward, but are you a widower, by chance?

    Jack, BH is a picture-pretty, delightfully serene community with a demographic that skews well-to-do “older.”

    It’s also almost entirely without a pulse. Consider it a suburb within a city. If this sounds “right” to you…..

    “suburb within a city” — how about a nursing home within a city. Even those below retirement age are premature old.

    God found Brooklyn Heights too perfect, and that’s why he made Brooklyn Heights residents.

    statestreet,

    Can you make the fonts a little bigger, I couldn’t hear it.

    Biff, I think your estimate is conservative.

    And can I just say that some people over there >>> post long rants that make *rob*’s rants look succinct!
