Apartment life in Yorkville

Yorkville was once the destination of many immigrants from Germany and Eastern Europe. Though some shops remain, coffee bars and co-ops now dominate the scene.

A mix of new apartment towers and older buildings, a relatively low crime rate and reasonable rents (by New York City standards!) attract professional people to Yorkville.
