Williamsburg
Neighborhood of Brooklyn in New York City, USA
Williamsburg is a neighborhood in Brooklyn, as little as one subway stop away from Manhattan, and is bordered to the north by Greenpoint, to the east by Bushwick and to the south by Bedford-Stuyvesant.
Since the 1990s, Williamsburg has transitioned from a traditional working-class Jewish, Italian, Polish and Latino neighborhood into a poster child for urban renewal and gentrification. The North Side and Greenpoint have become some of New York's hottest areas, with new bars and restaurants popping up every month. The South Side still has a very traditional feel with a large Hasidic Jewish population.
These neighborhoods together will give you everything you look for in New York: views, food, people, and plenty to explore. There is something here for every visitor.
