Prospect Heights (neighborhood, family friendly, park)

[nycmom]

Hello. I was wondering what the area of Prospect Heights is like. Is it safe? Family friendly? Specifically, St. Marks Ave.

Thanks!

It is mostly a nice neighborhood. But some parts are kinda spooky and isolated at night. Park Slope is very similar but more expensive.

prospect heights has good pockets and bad pockets....
where in prospect heights specifically?

the boundaries of prospect heights are roughly:
flatbush avenue to the west
atlantic avenue to the north
classon avenue to the east
and the southern point is where washington and flatbush intersect
kinda like a triangle
