Questions people actually ask
Short, sourced answers for buyers, sellers, and renters in Ditmas Park.
FOOD & DRINK
Cortelyou Road is the neighborhood’s main table: coffee in the morning, the co-op for groceries, and a few places we would send a friend to dinner.
NEIGHBORHOOD
From Cortelyou Road, the Q train is a straight shot into Manhattan. Plan on about 35 to 45 minutes to Midtown, depending on the hour.
BUYING
Recent Ditmas Park sales have clustered around the high seven hundreds, but a one-bedroom co-op can sit well below that neighborhood-wide median.
CO-OPS
Maintenance is the monthly bill that covers the building’s shared costs. In Ditmas Park co-ops it is as important as the purchase price.
