Like other New Yorkers, you\u2019re likely utilizing the city\u2019s public transportation on a daily basis to get around New York City. One of these options includes the subway system, which runs through the different parts of the city, from the Bronx, Manhattan, Queens, to Brooklyn. Folks who need to commute daily to work will often choose to live in a neighborhood that has an NYC subway stop which directly connects to work. During the last month, we spent time going over the various 4 and 6 train stops and neighborhoods along those particular lines. Today, we\u2019re wrapping up the green 4, 5, 6 lines by discussing the express MTA 5 train stops and the best neighborhoods to live in on this route.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n There are a total of 25 subway stops in the Bronx, 9 stops in Manhattan, and 11 stops in the borough of Brooklyn. In order from north to south is a list of stops that the 5 train stops from the Bronx, to Manhattan, to Brooklyn. Specifically in the Bronx, there are two branches that make up the 5 train line. One branch starts from the Eastchester-Dyre Ave stop, the other starts from the Nereid Ave stop. The two branches connect at the E 180 St stop before completing the rest of the 5 train stops in the Bronx and heading into Manhattan. We\u2019ve specifically pointed out stops that services not only the 5 train but also other train line routes that intersect with the 5 train. For your convenience, we\u2019ve also marked the stops that are ADA accessible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n You can also locate a <\/span>5 train stops map in PDF format<\/span><\/a> directly on the MTA\u2019s stop. Alternatively, you can read through a <\/span>text format of the 5 train stops map here<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The 5 train runs along two separate branches in the Bronx. We\u2019ve chosen the neighborhoods located at the tip of each branch to feature in this article\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Located just north of Van Cortlandt Park is the small yet beautiful neighborhood of <\/span>Woodlawn Heights<\/span><\/a>. Also known as Little Ireland, this neighborhood is home to a large population of Irish-Americans. The neighborhood is mostly quiet with great restaurants and businesses to check out on Katonah Avenue. Commuters can walk to the 5 train located at Nereid Ave or 233rd St stop.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Pelham Gardens<\/span><\/a> is a small neighborhood just north of the Bronx and Pelham Parkway Express. Residents have access to mostly single-family homes but there are a few low-rise apartment buildings. This Bronx neighborhood is accessible from the Gun Hill Rd (ADA accessible) and Pelham Pkwy stations on the Eastchester Dyre Avenue 5 train branch.<\/span><\/p>\n Just south of Grand Central-42nd St stop is the vibrant and fun neighborhood of <\/span>Murray Hill<\/span><\/a>. This neighborhood is home to a large number of college students and young professionals who attend school or work nearby in Midtown. The neighborhood has a large number of bars and casual restaurants to check out. Fun fact, the area right between 27th and 28th street on Lexington Avenue is also known as Curry Hill due to the large number of Indian restaurants on that block.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n5 train stops NYC<\/span><\/h1>\n
