# How long is the commute from Carroll Gardens to Manhattan?

Carroll Gardens is served primarily by the F and G trains, with the F providing a direct ride into Manhattan. Travel time to Lower Manhattan is roughly 20 to 30 minutes; Midtown takes 30 to 45 minutes. The trade-off for the neighborhood's quiet character is fewer subway options than denser Brooklyn neighborhoods - if commute flexibility matters, factor in the single F line. Above ground, the B61 and B57 buses provide additional connections.
