Our Community

According to Wikipedia...

East Flatbush is a neighborhood in the New York City borough of Brooklyn. The area is part of Brooklyn Community Board 17.

The area was populated post World War II predominantly by immigrant Jews and Italians, then in the 1960s by African Americans, but most recently has seen many West Indian immigrants such as Jamaicans, Trinidadians, Grenadians, Bajans, Guyanese, Panamanians and Haitians groups coming to the area. Within its confines is the Holy Cross Cemetery Church on Brooklyn Avenue and Tilden Avenue through Nostrand Ave. While there are some affluent residents present, East Flatbush is mostly populated by working-class Brooklynites.
