Who knows Coney Island?
I just moved here this weekend...Manhattan priced me out after 8 years, so I searched and found a swell place (I have loads of space at last, and can see the ocean.) I feel lucky to be here, very happy, but am utterly ignorant of this area of Brooklyn.
:shrug:
Can anybody help out with a little advice on what's here, what to do, where to eat, etc?

Many thanks!

1. Seagate, by any chance?
Coney Island has some rough sections ... lots of subsidized housing projects.

Welcome to Brooklyn, where everything is, at most, a bus ride away.

If you PM me with more localized information, I can share my favorite spots.

interests.

Brighton Beach has great Russian restaurants if you are interested in that.
By bus and/or train, there is Bay Ridge, Park Slope, and lots more of interest.
