typical bushwick apt.
Pros
small walkup building, not too many units, with decent neighbors that know each other. extremely spacious units. nice quiet-ish street though with convenient access to grocery, fresh vegetables. had a mouse problem but they were responsive to send people to address it, patching up holes in the walls and setting traps central air even though i lived in a basement there was no flooding, mold, or bug issues. just one very cold winter when the central air just wasn't working for some reason.
Cons
lack of natural light in the apt, especially as they converted parts of the basement into bedrooms. typical slumlord situation where they divide up what used to be a single family home into multiple bedrooms and rent out to young people looking for cheap rent and willing to tolerate less-than-ideal living situations. had a mouse problem but they were responsive to send people to address it, patching up holes in the walls and setting traps no laundry in building (typical)
