How families in Old Brooklyn usually search
Neighborhood matters less than families expect, and more than communities admit. It matters less because the city is compact — a community fifteen minutes away is still a community you can visit after work. It matters more because the visits that actually happen are the short ones. The practical test is not the map. It is whether the person who will visit most often will still be visiting in month eight.
For Old Brooklyn families, that usually means looking across a band of Cleveland rather than a single neighborhood, and weighing traffic and winter driving conditions at the hour you would actually drive.
