Vibe
The vibe and atmosphere in Williamsburg attract people from across the globe. It has become increasingly popular in the last decade and is loved by musicians, artists, and creatives of the city. There are about 6500 artists living their creative life in the neighborhood. Actors, musicians, photographers, and pretty much anyone with a creative background enjoy and have helped foster an environment for great restaurants, clubs, galleries, experiences, and unique shops.

Many former factories/warehouses are now used as designer lofts. Waterfront luxury properties also have popped up to rent/buy with spectacular Manhattan views and more development plans on the water front have already been approved. Prices to buy and rent have seen a tremendous growth, actually a lot more than some neighborhoods in Manhattan.
