I agree with most of the comments. Clinton Hill is pretty safe. You will like it.

Hi,
I grew up in the Lower East Side and left NYC in 1976. My family still lives in the city. In a few weeks we'll be coming to NY and have house swapped for a place very close to St James Pl on Fulton.

Of course when I was a kid this part of the city was a no man's land.

Is it safe now? Can we feel safe getting off the Clinton/Washington C train at night for instance? Or better to get off at Jay St Borough Hall or Dekalb and take the bus?

I was concerned by your remark (above quoted) that Fulton between Washington and Franklin was a real ghetto, that's EXACTLY where we're staying!

Any info and tips would be GREATLY appreciated

Clinton Hill is rapidly gentrifying. 10 years ago, not safe. Today, you're fine.

Thanks, my family said so.
Even getting off at Clinton/Washington C train at night???
