About My Community

Bedford Stuyvesant, also known as "Bed-Stuy" is the community I was born and raised in. I currently live on Park Avenue, a few blocks from the well known, Woodhull Hospital. Bed-Stuy has a high African American population. Growing up in Bed-Stuy has given me a chance to meet many new people and make new friends in my community. There are also many indoor as well as outdoor activities available within my community which includes gyms, parks, and volunteer work. There are also new buildings being built for housing, restaurants and office buildings.
