As it turns out, the most affordable street in New York City at the moment is Unionport Road in the Bronx, where the median sale price is $170,000. This Parkchester street might not be as glamorous as Park Avenue, but what you get is proximity to the Bronx Zoo, the New York Botanical Garden, and Yankee Stadium. You won’t be too far from Manhattan, either, if you’re planning on commuting to work.

The second and third most affordable streets in NYC are located in the same area of Parkchester, namely Metropolitan Avenue and Metropolitan Oval. On Metropolitan Avenue, homes are selling for a median of $173,5000, while on the Metropolitan Oval, they command $180,000. Surrounding the Bronx Unionport Parkchester Park, these streets offer proximity to retail options like Macy’s, Marshall’s, or Rainbow, to dining at Starbucks, Burger King, Dunkin’ Donuts, or Applebees, and also offer access to public transportation. The 6 line of the New York City Subway is easily accessible, as are local buses and the Cross-Bronx Expressway.

Opinion: According to these stats Queens is strictly in the middle of classes.
Didn't notice too many on the poor side or rich side of the street.

Yes and no. There are some places cheaper in Bedford park. But overall, there are very few 2 bedroom in the 200K range. In Parkchester you have a few under $200K and many in the 200K range.

Staten Island is considered the most affordable borough to buy a home in. But affordable doesn't mean what it once did. Look at this new 2-family house in my neighborhood. In today's NYC $1.25m is considered 'affordable'. +$1M seems to be the asking price around S.I. for new 2-family homes.
