Love it (if you’re in your 20s) great places to go out, good food, cute boutiques, fantastic movie theatre if you’re into that. Down side is it is dirty (but that’s NY) and not as many trains go down there and not as frequently but you can make do with the F

Super chaotic, loud, dirty, but is fun. Would go out there, but never live there again

I live on the border of LES/Chinatown and I personally feel I've outgrown it a bit as someone in my late 20s. It all depends how you feel about nightlife! The rats really are out of control though ha, be wary if you have a dog who tries to hunt.

These days it’s so gentrified and safe. Anybody can live there.

Probably not as much as I hate how homogenized and beige the LES has become.

Pass, though I am in my early 30s. I do go to a gym I really like there.

which gym?

Depends exactly where but I’m in my early 30s and I love it. Wouldn’t want to live on a street full of bars but mine is pretty quiet. FJMZ are not the best lines but they do go nearly everywhere, and I like the easy access to Brooklyn. Great restaurants, walk to Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods. East river park is pretty nice but partly closed for next five years.

The accessibility to the Trader Joe’s in LES is KEY
