I live in Williamsburg and have friends who live in east village. Yeah it’s convenient to bar hop and be in the epicenter of it all. But i love Williamsburg because it’s quieter and different vibe but still many fun places to go to like restaurants, stores, bars, etc.

Williamsburg is great. Conveniently located, good mix of action and peaceful. Apartment options seem to have better amenities or at least more inventory of places with extra amenities.

East village can be quiet as long as you’re not on a main stretch. It’s a small enough neighb where I know where its borders start and end.. and I love that. It still has some weird crazy eastern euro soul in pockets. — Wburg: I love partying there but there’s definitely no same sense of inherent personality to it.

I would really appreciate a mentor/guidance as I try to find a job during this pandemic. I am a first generation recent MBA graduate in my 30s.

How do I have them actually keep me in mind to let me know when a job opens up? How do I continue the relationship?
