That's good. Sometimes the neighborhood is more important then the place you reside in. My apartment is smaller then my old one, and also slightly more expensive, but the neighborhood is much better. The UWS is also one of my favorite areas.

All of Williamsburg [and even Greenpoint to a certain extent] are very ugly. I think that's the reason why I rarely go to them despite what they offer.
