Get the bay ridgemug. Originally called "Yellowhook". A largely middle class neighborhood in the southwest corner of the New York City borough of Brooklyn. With its strong family presence, it is not uncommon to see third or fourth generation families living in the region. Bay Ridge has been known for its large Irish, Italian, Greek and Scandinavian population, but like other areas in South/Southwest Brooklyn, it has recently seen a large influx of Russian immigrants, and a smaller amount of Chinese. Bay Ridge also has many international restaurants and bars, especially along 3rd and 5th Avenue. It is home to Fort Hamilton, the Verrazano Narrows Bridge, the 69th street Pier (and it's 9/11 monument), Owl's Head Park, and John Paul Jones Park a.k.a. "Cannonball Park".
Contrary to popular belief, Bay Ridge is not inherently a rich or poor neighborhood, and most of the mansions that some may see as part of the neighborhood are either landmarks or are actually part of nearby Dyker Heights.

Get the Bay Ridgemug. Once known as Yellow Hook, Bay Ridge is a diverse neighborhood in Brooklyn. It is mainly a middle class area with also a large number of lower middle class residents, and a small number of upper class residents. The neighborhood was once famous for its large Irish, Norwegian and Italian population; but today there are many other races including Arabic, Greek, Asian, and Hispanic. Bay Ridge is also known for its high quantity of bars, and liquor stores. Once quoted as being "the land of bars and churches" Bay Ridge still holds some of its original character, and is still known as a drinking neighborhood. Contrary to belief Bay Ridge is not an upscale rich neighborhood. It is a very diverse working class area, with many different types of cultures and ethnicities mixing.

Get the Bay Ridgemug. a middle class neighborhood in Brooklyn. middle class and ethnically diverse. mostly Irish, Italian, and Norwegian it has experienced an influx of Arabs on 5th and 69th and the surrounding area. the area is known as little mecca. arabs are not bad people in general but the ones there make the neighborhood look bad acting like puerto rican gangstas and roaming in groups picking on people that don't have the numbers or size to fight back. Shore Road is the richest part of the area, along the water and the Shore Promenade. A family oriented area, it has experienced crime rates rise in recent years. Land of bars and churches.
