"Culturally diverse Kingsbridge -- it ain't that bad!"

Kingsbridge is a great, culturally diverse neighborhood that really, in my opinion, gets a bad rap. Some of the homes in Kingsbridge in of itself are very beautiful and I personally believe the brownstones in this neighborhood are particularly in the best in the Bronx. The population itself is predominantly hispanic (particularly Dominican) and have great small little restaurants throughout the area. Some of the best Fangu (A dominican dish made of mashed plaintains, pork, and onions) is served in Kingsbridge. Also it is home of the fantastic River Plaza Shopping Center, a mall that is said to have over 200 merchants.

I believe Kingsbridge is one of the more up-and-coming neighborhoods in The Bronx.
