Riverdale and Forest Hills give me somewhat similar vibes with both having fairly large single family homes, yet close to very urban strips. They’re also both quite leafy in parts, though Riverdale feels a lot hillier to me despite Forest Hills’s name.

Fort Lee and Murray Hill (the Queens one) as well being somewhat removed from the core, but accessible and with large Korean populations.

The Jersey City waterfront and LIC are both full of new high-rises with a waterfront and a lot of high-income professionals working there, but despite the density doesn’t quite gel into really active streets for large stretches.

Maspeth's industrial area is like no other. Maybe East Williamsburg.

Midwood BK and Riverdale BX, although soon it'll be Midwood BK and Flushing Q/Sunset Park BK.

Bay Ridge reminds me of Astoria in terms of the buildings and the demographics. Like an Astoria that is much farther away

Hey Seventh, not to nitpick, but Davidson avenue is either Morris Heights, University Heights, and maybe Kingsbridge Heights. Fordham Heights would start east of Jerome avenue.

But yes I agree, I looked up 21st and it resembles all those avenues in the central BX.

Nahh, I appreciate it. I'm not 100% on Bronx neighborhood boundaries.

The neighborhood of Prospect Park South (with exception to the Victorian section) all looks like that part of the Bronx to me
