As always, what is your budget? That will significantly determine which nabe.

If you are serious you can buy a nice little house in Greenwood near the slope or nearer to sunset park and have a good yard, safety and a decent downtown commute to manhattan. One is closer to downtown and brownstone Brooklyn, but he other may have access to express N as well as R trains. But Ridgewood, Glendale, Sunnyside, Bayside as noted above are also all awesome little neighborhoods. So is Bellerose.

Poster is kidding right? That’s the definition of almost all of Brooklyn, Queens, Northern NJ, Western Long Island, Westchester, etc… Try Glendale.

Bay Ridge.  The only drawback to Bay Ridge is their public transportation.  You’re stuck with the R!

Ridgewood!  Especially near Fresh Pond Road.  Great housing, shopping and transportation.  See the recent article in the Wall Street Journal.
