of NYC Neighborhoods to Watch
in 2019. Th e study was conducted on
four main indicators: annual change
in median sales and rent price, listing
views on StreetEasy and the amount of
new construction units in the neighborhood.
Corona, which took the No. 8 spot
on the list, saw the median rent price
raise to $1,880 and the median sale
price raise to $995,500, marking a 3 percent
increase and 58 percent increase,
respectively, year-over-year. Searches
on StreetEasy’s website for Corona rose
12 percent during 2018 and the neighborhood
saw construction on 143 new
units.
Flushing’s Auburndale neighborhood
took the No. 9 spot on this year’s
roundup. In addition to 225 new construction
units, the neighborhood saw a
31 percent increase in web searches on
StreetEasy this year.
Auburndale also saw increases in yearover
year median rent and sales prices,
increasing to $2,048 and $968,000,
respectively.
Th is year, the number one spot went
to Downtown Brooklyn. While the
neighborhood did not make the top 10
list, Long Island City was given an honorable
mention. In light of Amazon’s
HQ2 announcement, StreetEasy saw
buyer interest in the area skyrocket,
with searches of the neighborhood
increasing 500 percent in the days following
the announcement. Photo via Flickr/Paul VanDerWerf
