Is it safe? Popular question for many. Those folks may be stuck in 1973. If you are seeking crime and desperation...Go to Syria! If culture is your feel, this is the spot. Lots of new goings on uptown

Bring your camera and you'll feel like one of the international tourists that are flocking to the gospel venues to hear the word. Real estate has become pricey. God may not be able to make the rents!

Before you think of moving here, check out the neighborhood first, and notice community's dynamics. Then consider taking advantage of the cheaper rents. Community is king in Harlem!

Enjoy the goodwill of people plus mark as a gift market. U can find the same products with %50 off prices compare to Midtown. Chat with the t-shirt salesman across the Apollo theater. Great guy.

West Harlem's less glamorous sibling. East Harlem has plenty to offer and has more of the original Harlem left for you to marvel at. Take a trip and enjoy the. People and the sites.

Harlem is the ultimate buffet table when it comes to cultural cuisine. Explore the Southern, Latin, African fare made for and by locals. Harlem may be glossier but it's still authentic.

Harlem is beautiful; and has been for as long as I can remember. If you plan to eat, stick to locally owned restaurants; keep the local economy vibrant! Sorry Applebee's!

125th street BID is incredible, 116th = cultural capital of NYC...El Barrio & Harlem Renaissance remnants, the Apollo, Columbia University, the old Cotton Club, Jazz, History etc. etc. #iheartharlem

Morningside Park is a great place to relax, jog, or have a cook-out with friends! Lots of green and a quiet area of town.

I'll pass , thank you very much , if your people can make Harlem nice, why cant they do it all over the country where they live instead of destroying every neighborhood they live in?

Harlem is still one of the poorest communities in New York, suffering from a high unemployment rate and other socio aspects, but I love it here. There's so much culture

Best Yet Market : it's like an ugly stepsister to whole foods. Be sure to ALWAYS check the expiration date of their food. I'm just saying, bad experiences there in the past.

Get cookies at Levain Bakery, beer at Beir, fried chicken at Amy Ruth's, brunch at Melba's, and join the cookouts in Morningside Park.
