If price is the only issue, I'd say you probably have other options.
If where you live--your age, culture, wants, are also a condition, I might make other suggestions.
Your name implies "kid" so if that is true I'd be reluctant to suggest Canarsie as I think it is more a family type neighbourhood - or at least it was.
Bushwick, next to Williamsburg, is also a family centred community, and Bed-Sty is more of a mixed young and family neighbourhood. It's physical proximity to some of the gentrified areas is making it more and more appealing to some--but still affordable.

But again, they have crime rates less then desirable which is not a big deal for me but still, is it that bad? If so, are there any other places just as cheap?
Im looking to spend 1,100 a month or less. A little higher then that would be ok though but around that price range. Commuting is not much of a concern.
