Hey everyone I love the neighborhood of sunset park 5th and 8th ave plus the proximity to places like bay ridge, industry city, etc. I'm trying to convince my wife to be open to moving/buying in sunset park. She is a little hesitant given the commute to Manhattan and the change of life from Manhattan/fort green that we're used to.

wondering if anyone who has recently moved from fort green/Manhattan area to sunset park could share why and how they made the decision to move OR if open to chat IRL or via reddit chat.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: thank you so much everyone for the thoughtful responses! I’m out for the night but will review each of them in the morning

I don’t see the point of reopening this sub from abandonment only to abandon it right afterwards. Close the sub down if no one’s going to moderate it.

Hi friends! My husband and I are beginning the processes of looking for an apartment to buy in Sunset Park and are looking for real experience recommendations for real estate agents who work in the area. Anybody have a super great experience? Any bad ones to avoid? Ideally looking for someone who's a go-getter and not afraid to push. Thanks!

They've made the 6th avenue entrance a dump because of the illegal vendors.

Has anyone else noticed the recent construction on curb cuts throughout Sunset Park? I've been seeing crews tear up perfectly functional sidewalks that were installed less than three years ago, only to replace them with what appear to be identical designs. It’s frustrating to see resources spent on areas that were in good condition while other sidewalks in the neighborhood remain in poor shape. Does anyone know if there’s a specific project or initiative behind this, or does it seem like a questionable use of capital funding to you all? Shady. Might be a contractor scam like they did when they constructed PS 896.

Another black clad balaclava wearing guy shooting people in Sunset and Mitaynes and Aviles not doing anything. This is like the 9th time in 6 months for these types of incidents and those are the only ones reported. The dude was head to toe black with hood and hat in 90 degree weather. C'mon!

Hi

I am relatively new here. I realised that as the temperatures are warming up, there is an uptick in freaking loud music being blasted from cars at all times of the day!

I wfh and apple noise isolation is proving to be useless.

What is this sickness of wanting to blast loud music at all times of the day and it’s different groups of people from what I can tell.

How are families with kids dealing with this.

I live around 59 - 62nd st near 5th ave.

What do I do 🥹

Title. Don’t see a lot of great night life spots but may just be looking in the wrong places. Don’t see a lot of people my age around, mostly older folk. What spots are nearby? Or does everyone just go to East Village lol

Anybody else sick and tired of hearing them? It’s not even fireworks it’s just an incredibly loud sound. It’s been going on for like the last 5 years usually during the summer.

Not quite Sunset on 5th Ave and 18th but super close

I have work to do in the area and would love to have friends to talk to while there. I hope everyone reading this has a great day ❤️

I got food poisoning it’s day2 they must be filthy . For me to get salmonella

Hey, I’m 25M and trying to get back into the gym after a long break. I stopped going in 2023 after a small road accident, and since graduating most of my friends have moved away, so life has mostly just been work lately.

I work a typical 8-5, so evenings or weekends would probably work best. It’d be nice to have someone to go with, keep each other accountable, and make the process a bit less solo.

If anyone’s in a similar situation and looking for a gym buddy, feel free to reach out.
