About Williamsburg, Brooklyn

Williamsburg spans from the waterfront high-rises on Kent to the older walk-ups east of Union Ave. The waterfront buildings have gyms, laundry, and doormen at the top of this range; the South and East Williamsburg walk-ups are where roommate shares actually pencil out.

Getting to work from Williamsburg, Brooklyn

The L from Bedford is one stop to Manhattan — under 10 minutes to Union Square — plus the G to the rest of Brooklyn, the J/M over the bridge, and the NYC Ferry to Midtown and Wall Street.

Who shares apartments here

Tech, media, and fashion professionals, freelancers, and a large Hasidic community in the south. Older and higher-earning than Bushwick.

The trade-off

Highest per-room rent on this list outside the Manhattan high-rises, and Bedford Ave is packed every weekend. Bushwick is two or three L stops east for $300-500 less per room.
