Hello I wanted to know what the best part of Brooklyn to
move to for a family? I currently live in Pittsburgh, PA and
it is a fairly family oriented town, what is the best place
to raise children, safety and culturally?

Bay Ridge is about the best place for a family. But it's not
cheap. Get ready to spend over $700k for a house there. Park
Slope is supposedly a family neighborhood but I think it's
over-rated and has a higher crime rate than Bay Ridge. You
can own a car in Bay Ridge easier than in Park Slope. Many
houses in Bay Ridge have driveways and garages. Park Slope
is a car-owners nightmare, on-street parking, a lot of car
break-ins too.
