# What is Flatbush known for?

Flatbush is one of Brooklyn's largest and most culturally diverse neighborhoods, with strong Caribbean-American community ties and a long history of immigrant settlement. The area mixes Victorian-era housing in pockets (especially toward Ditmas Park), brownstones, multi-family homes, and modern construction. Flatbush has its own commercial corridors, churches, schools, and community institutions that make it self-sufficient. To explore (/flatbush-real-estate/), call (718) 666-2696.
