About the Community
Williamsburg is located on the northern edge of Brooklyn, bordering Greenpoint, Bedford-Stuyvesant, and Bushwick and is easily accessible by mass transit. Home to a diverse ethnic community, Williamsburg contains a thriving art community, an assortment of restaurants, the nation's largest Hassidic Jewish community, and one of New York's largest Latino communities. In recent years Williamsburg has attracted a large community of artists, musicians, and more recently a growing number of upwardly mobile professionals.
"South Williamsburg" refers to an area south of the Williamsburg Bridge, which is occupied predominantly by Yiddish-speaking Hasidim. Further north is an area known as the "South Side," occupied by a diverse Latin community.
The "North Side," traditionally Polish and Italian, is now host to a large community of musicians, artists, and recently arrived Manhattanites. East Williamsburg is home to the Italian American, African American, and the Hispanic communities and is located in the area between Williamsburg and Bushwick.
