Twice as densely-populated as Brooklyn and just under three times as densely populated as New York taken together, Flatbush is a popular neighborhood for many who wish to live in a more suburban like neighborhood. Strong transit links, good housing stock, proximity to Prospect Park along with lower rents tend to make Flatbush a popular destination for starting families. North toward the park and east toward Flatbush Avenue, medium-sized apartment buildings around a half-dozen stories dominate, though occasional high-rises can be spotted. Further west and south are mostly attractive single-family homes on leafy streets that seem right out of mature, upper-middle class suburbs.
