About this Neighborhood
South Slope occupies an interesting position in Brooklyn's hierarchy — south of the famous slope, north of the industrial edge. Its 46 restaurants run significantly below cohort average (z=−1.69, gap signal), but what exists is eclectic: M.C. Luncheonette for Mexican, El Continental for Salvadoran, Jey Diner for diner-style mixed plates. Coffee at 16 options (z=−0.84) covers Southside Coffee, Sunrise Espresso & Bar, and the excellently-named Coffee & Chisme. The real story is grocery: 37 options against a cohort average of 33.45 (z=0.40) — Earth's Basket, Market Deli, On The Corner, 4th Ave Deli. Parks are sparse at only 4 — Mayrose Community Garden, Butterfly Gardens, a couple of small plots. Fitness is solid at 9 including South Brooklyn Fencing and Ardon Sweet Science Gym. SocialGlue of 35 is the lowest in this batch — a high-transaction, low-dwell neighborhood. People shop and move.
