Community Information

affordable Middle Eastern East Asian Eastern European Central Asian

Many people complete their daily chores. They go food shopping, gather in restaurants and stay home. For most of us who work outside the neighborhood, we utilize the Brighton Line (the B and Q trains) during rush hours. Unlike other neighborhoods, the streets become empty by 8pm.

My community is mostly made up of Eastern European and Chinese immigrants who came to this country for almost 30 years. This area has low density in contrast to the rest of the city.

My community in Sheepshead Bay is located close to Brighton Beach, basically close to the water and beach with a higher wind speed in contrast to most neighborhoods in the city. Most people from all parts of the city come to Brighton Beach to enjoy recreation. This tourism industry benifts many Chinese and Eastern European business shops who happen to be located in the neighborhood.

We need more transportation options for sure. As a new member of the neighborhood, we are extremely away from the city and those who live away from the subway would take a crowded bus to the B and Q trains. I was raised in Queens, where many transportation options are available. Unless we can expand express bus options into the city, access to the subway remain a problem. For now with politics, we are good with representation and ready for the new districts newly drawn.
