What do you like most about Crown Heights?
Having aired out our collective dirty laundry about what folks like least about Crown Heights, we wanted to end the week on a more positive note. And thus we reveal the responses to our survey question: “What do you like most about Crown Heights?”
… And the # 1 answer is …
… the diversity of the neighborhood. And it’s true – from the people to the architecture to everything in between – Crown Heights boasts an ecclectic mix.
In terms of how we tallied the results – as with the earlier post, we basically parsed through and sorted the responses into general categories. So the percentage column indicates in what percentage of answers included some reference to the particular item. Since people could list more than one aspect of the neighborhood that they liked, the percentages may add up to more than 100%. Also, since there was a bit more variety with the answers with this one, we’ve only included the answers that appeared with some bit of frequency.
