  1. The only crime stat I know of is the one that the NY Times includes with house listings in the real estate section. According to that stat. the crime level in Lefferts Manor is lower than Park Slope. I’ll check the actual numbers and post them

  2. Anyone have any actual crime stats? All the posts about how deadly dangerous PLG sound like unsubstantiated hyperbole. And all the posts that respond “there’s crime in every neighborhood” are equally unconvincing. (Sure there is — that doesn’t mean there’s an equal amount of crime in every neighborhood.)

    As long as we’re going to have this fight every three days, someone might as well throw out some actual facts. Otherwise you’re all just blowing hot air.

    GardensGal, I take exception to only one thing in your earlier post — that people shouldn’t care whether houses in HOTD are overpriced as long as “it’s not your money.” One great thing about this blog is the feedback it provides to potential buyers.

    I agree there’s no point calling people “stupid” for buying, but it’s worth noting that you could buy a house in the south slope for the same price/sq ft. That’s more relevant than arguing how much crime there was in Park Slope 10 years ago — unless someone is flying off in their time machine to buy a Slope brownstone in 1996.

  3. I have witnessed crime in PLG — several drug deals on the corner of Nostrand and Sterling (they use underage kids to deliver the goods so they’re safe). Two weeks ago a gang of kids who hang out near Hammond’s on Nostrand attacked a Chinese food deliveryman on my street (Lefferst Ave between Nostrand and Rogers).

    However, as soon as people realized something was going on, everyone cam out of his/her house, including one neighbor of mine who is a cop. The kids ran off, and people waited with the deliveryman until the police and an ambulance arrived.

    No, this neighborhood isn’t perfect, but people here do watch out for each other. I come home at all times on night on the subway (both the Q and the 2); I know people on my block who’ve lived in the neighborhood for over thirty years, as well as newcomers, and I think things are only getting better. I do think prices may be moving a bit fast, however, but that’s because people know that the area will inevitably improve — I just hope to be able to buy before prices get too high!

    And I’d also love to know the details about the cafe on Nostrand!

  4. Gee, a house on my block in center park slope was broken into, I’d better steer clear of walking the streets of park slope; I was attacked in fort greene, better stay out of there too. A woman was raped in my building when I lived in soho, that must mean it’s a bad neighborhood.
