Homecrest, Brooklyn is home to about 71,000 people, and 17,000 households. The majority of these people are in their mid 40s to mid 50s, with an average income of $47,453. However, it is not a bell curve, because the majority of households only earn 0K-10K a year, and the next majority earns 75K-100K, as shown by this graph.

Their hospitals include Homecrest Health Center, Coney Island Hospital, NY Presbyterian Community, and Beth Israel King Highway.

Homecrest is New York City’s newest Chinatown and came into creation around 2000. It is in a way directly connected to Manhattan’s Chinatown since both are close to the Q trains. Homecrest/Avenue U came about because of the overpopulating of Sunset Park, as dictated in the NYC/LA Zhou, Chin, and Kim article.
