Mount Eden

This neighborhood is part of Tremont (a name derived from the three “mounts”: Mount Eden, Mount Hope, and Fairmount) in the west Bronx, and like many neighborhoods in this borough, it isn’t exactly a sublime place to visit. There certainly isn’t any shopping to be had, at least not any that can’t be done anywhere (think Duane Reade, 99 cent stores), and the eateries can be pretty much taken or left. This is one of those neighborhoods that no one would choose to live in of their own free will, unless their income was a bit on the limited side.
