Lol. It totally is. Except we do have a couple of our own schools, restaurants, grocery stores and clothing stores. But yeah, the BP takeover is almost complete.

I have to laugh seeing all these threads LOL

Williamsburg made it simple- everything is considered Williamsburg, even when geographically it is Bed-Sty, Clinton Hill, etc.

Carry on...

My family moved to Williamsburg as early as 1918 (not chasidish) but I still can't get over the fact that Williamsburg was never chasidish to begin with and how it became completely Satmar. I live in Boro Park that also became Chasidish over the last thirty years and if I want to move to Lakewood it's also becoming more chasidish. I happen to be a little Chasidish but as they say to cross Ocean Parkway you need a passport. Love ya all!

And our own dentists and public library and park and bike paths and hardware stores and 99 cent stores and fish store and double header and the F train. Wait. We're missing a meat store. Kensington is incomplete. 🙈

Where's the Kensington Mikvah?

We may use some things from Boro park but Kensington is most definitely not Boro park. I love living in Kensington but would never live in Boro park.
