Im moving to nyc in about three weeks and need a safe spanish neighborhood near yonkers. Where is good?|150234

I would like to be not far from the city and in a neighborhood that is relatively safe and has a large spanish speaking population. Can anyone recommend some place? Possibly with good nightlife and an age range of 20-40 mostly?

  • The only neighborhood I can think of is Kingsbridge (in the Bronx). It_s also not the safest neighborhood either though there are pockets within that are okay.

    It is close to Yonkers (via the _1_ subway to Van Cortlandt Park along Broadway and the Bee Line _1_ bus to Yonkers). There is a large Latino contingency there...usually on Broadway and Kingsbridge Road. There is major shopping nearby (Target - W. 225th Street in Marble Hill)

    The nearby nightlife is on Fordham Road called _X Bar_...salsa, hip-hop, reggaeton. If you can find a place near Bailey Avenue north of 238th Street. or along the reservoir on Sedgwick Avenue, you should be okay.

  • Any where in the Bronx except for the South Bronx or around the Concourse up to Fordham Rd. and around Soundview. Those are the ruffest parts of the Bronx that I know of. Everywhere else is great. I love the Bronx! Rent is wayy affordable_. Keep your eye oncraigslist.

  • If a large spanish speaking population is important to you, why not Washington Heights?
