Hello, I recently lost a lawsuit to my building so I have to move out of midtown manhattan. So i am looking for apartments with low rent to stay in for about a year so i can make enough money then move out. The only thing is they must be SAFE! I do have a 13 yr old daughter and a 15 yr old son who both come and go by thereselves so the area must be safe enough for them to come and go. They would be coming home at around a max of 10:30 at night (absolute latest). So basically it has to be safe and relativley close to midtown manhattan (max 1hour commute)
Here are the apts im looking at and can afford.
MANHATTAN:
103st between 2nd and 3rd
116th street btwn lex and park
Apartments between 118th-127th streets, mostly between park and 2nd ave
7th Street and avenue C
BRONX:
(I would be renting a house or walk up apt, NOT living in the projects there, but the apts are pretty close to the projects so let me know if this will be an issue.)
East Tremont area
Mott Haven area
Castle Hill Area
138th street
Please tell me anything you can on these neighboorhoods, and if you think it would be safe enough to live there. I have street smarts, but my daughter doesn't really listen to what i tell her and walks around with her iPhone with those giveaway white earpods in. So please tell me which would be the safest. I am considering living in east harlem but i heard it can be rough at night. Any info helps, thanks!
tho Mott Haven and E Tremont and 138th have come a long way, i don't know if they would be considered "safe". Castle Hill north of the Cr Bronx and Westchester Ave are probably safer than the aforementioned 3

Another troll post only a month after your last one? Really,if you are going to troll,at least don't cross up on your stories.Last month you were moving because you lost your job.
"I recently got layed off of my job, and my midtown manhattan apartment is going to soon become unaffordable to me. So i've been searching for cheap apartments near midtown manhatan and here is what i've come up with. What i would like to know is, are these neighboorhoods safe? "
Your technique is pathetic.I give you an F in trolling.

NOT trolling, Im serious. Got my fired and lost a lawsuit. The bulding i lived in would not provide ramps or make it any easier for me to enter the bulding when i had a broken foot. I was on crutches and requested that they put a ramp up the 4 steps that you walk up to enter the bulding, and apparently my lawyer told me it was the law, but i lost. I am 100% serious and honestly i need real advice. I Really dont have time to waste making fake posts asking about New York. What would i get from that? Like seriously.
I wouldn't live in any with my teenage children coming and going alone at 10pm. Look into a more family type of neighborhood in queens or way out in brooklyn. Longer commute yes. But better areas.

Of the areas you listed, I agree about 7th and C, but the above is the best advice - many nice family areas in Queens or Bay Ridge.
