Boerum Hill Apartments for Rent

Fun Facts and History of Boerum Hill

Most of Boerum’s colonial life was spent as the farmland and estate of the Boerum family. However, as Brooklyn expanded, the family soon had to sell their property to make homes for people. Row houses replaced the farmland between the 1840’s and 70’s.

Boerum Hill was largely a working class neighborhood, many people commuting to the industrial neighborhoods of Brooklyn as well as the Navy Yard. Even after the Navy Yard cut jobs and factories closed, the people of the neighborhood were able to stay strong and afford their homes, even through the Great Depression and the recession of the 1970’s.

During the 1990’s, homes that were formerly boarding houses started being purchased as private property as streets were listed as Historic Districts. Today, Boerum Hill is popular with the working and affluent classes of the borough, having affordable options for almost everyone.

Boerum Hill Buildings

Boerum Hill is a neighborhood dominated by row houses and townhomes. There are some mid and high rise apartment complexes, but the flatter, single family homes are what the neighborhood is known for.

Atmosphere of Boerum Hill

Boerum Hill is a cool neighborhood with an easy going vibe. The people who live here are friendly, artistic, and love a good meal. Boerum Hill has a little something for everyone who visits the neighborhood.

That said, this neighborhood is surrounded by popular spots like BAM and The Barclays Center. Thus, many people live here for easy access to other neighborhood’s arts and cultures. The proximity to other cool neighborhoods makes Boerum Hill a bit more reserved, especially at night when other, similar neighborhoods, might have a hopping bar scene.

Family Score for Boerum Hill
