Hollywood avenue Bronx is probably the safest street/avenue in the region. Some of the most expensive houses in New York are found here (next to Riverdale and Forest Hills)

public housing and poor transportation strategy makes for an ugly run down neighborhood that breeds drugs and poverty

If you want to live in countryside and still be in the city, this is the best option for you. Most of the houses (beautiful houses) here are very expensive compared to the rest of the Bronx but very affordable compared to the overpriced Brooklyn homes (which are less attractive).. The streets are safe and quiet. You might need a car to live here but there is also bus and the 6 train station a few minutes away. Its closeness to the park and the beach is its advantage

Stay away from the South Bronx where there is low quality of life. The rest of the Bronx (Riverdale, Country Club, Schuylerville, Pelham etc) is better than Queens and Brooklyn New York.

Manhattan is the commercial capital of the world. It is "THE CITY" of the world. Most of it is too expensive and parking is a headache but for the young and single, this is as good as it gets on earth.

Projects and more projects. Though the area away the projects are decent

Schuylerville has one of the most expensive houses in the Bronx after Riverdale. But living there is worth it. Quiet, safe, nice schools, parks, old but pretty homes, highway access and not too far from Subway.
