I'll be subletting for a couple of months.

The apartment is located at 14th Avenue and 79th Street near the D train station?

Any feedback about this area? Would it be a pain to commute to Manhattan?

Thanks...and by the way, the people and information in this forum are awesome!

Keith

That location is not in Bay Ridge.

It's actually on the Eastern side of Dyker Heights. It's a safe, family-oriented neighborhood, but does not have the dining, shopping and nightlife amenities of Bay Ridge. If someone is selling this to you as "Bay Ridge", they are not being truthful.

As for the commute, I don't have personal experience commuting on the D Train, but it's a safe bet to assume at least a 45-50 minute ride to Midtown, which is the case almost everywhere in Southern Brooklyn below 65th St./King's Highway.

BTW - Bay Ridge is basically defined as South of 65th St. and West of the Gowanus Expy.
