"Home to celebrity icons and historical art walls, Brooklyn offers no shortage of culture and family-friendly living. From the Brooklyn Children's Museum to the various old-fashioned ice cream shops and traditional American fare eateries, the outer borough has become ideal for people looking to raise a family in the city but who want to escape the hustle and bustle of Manhattan."
"Brooklyn was the most populous borough with continued growth and received migrants, including asylum seekers, who helped reverse prior population losses for the city overall. The borough also experienced high numbers in new construction, with 13,732 new housing units completed in Brooklyn in 2024 -the highest number of new construction homes built among the five boroughs of New York City for that year, our sister publication QNS reported."
Brooklyn combines cultural attractions and family-oriented amenities that appeal to city residents seeking suburban-style living within reach of Manhattan. The borough experienced population growth between mid-2023 and mid-2024, becoming the most populous borough and receiving migrants, including asylum seekers, which helped reverse prior citywide population losses. New construction surged, with 13,732 housing units completed in 2024—the highest among the five boroughs. Neighborhoods like Gowanus are emerging as desirable areas due to convenient transit, family activities, waterfront and historical sites, and new restaurants and community development that add character and value.
