THE RIDGE - MOST KID FRIENDLY NABE


Who knew the Ridge is the most kid friendly neighborhood in Brooklyn.

Evidently the Citizens' Committee for Children knows. According to their latest report, kids here in the Ridge enjoy
83 kids per acre of parkland - the most green space per child in Brooklyn.

Meanwhile, in East Flatbush, families are faced with 2,497 kids per park acre, and in Borough Park it's even worse, with a whopping 2,658 kids per acre, both among the highest concentrations in the city.
