We sort of felt left out of this article in the Daily News, Finding deals in city's pricey rental market. Kensington is approx. the same commuting time to mid-town as Inwood and one beds run in the $1000 to $1200 range. Plus although we complain about the F it is way less crowded then the L and much more reliable then the JMZ. (We are also a quick bus ride over to the Q). So Kensington doesn't necessarily have the drip of cool as say a Bushwick does these days BUT we like it here and only see it getting better and better. For you renters here's what we got...
$925 L-shaped Studio on Ocean Pkwy & Ditmas Ave
$1100 1 Bed Attic Apt. on E8th & Cortelyou (This does specify itself as a attic apt w some sloping ceilings!)
$2200 2/3 Bedroom in Victorian Home near F at Church Ave.
