Jamaica, New York

Jamaica, Queens, is part of one of the five boroughs of New York City. Lying across the East River from Manhattan, the city has approximately 90,000 residents and is densely populated with a diverse ethnic mixture of nationalities. The city was not named after the Caribbean island but after an Algonquin tribe who lived there early on.

Jamaica is very walkable with excellent subway, bus and train service into Manhattan and to the other boroughs. The huge amount of renewal going on in areas of Jamaicaand much of the historic character is being restored.

Your Jamaica apartment is just a start to being in the middle of it all.

Soccer Rules!

There are two main centers in Jamaica for shopping and strolling. Jamaica Avenue and Hillside Avenue. Both offer abundant ethnic shopping and are the centers of the area.Jamaica Center for Arts and Learning offers not only shows but art and performance classes to area residents. Rufus King Park is a soccer heaven where the many nationalities practice and play their national sport. You'll even find a little British cricket played there too.

International Palate

Once in your Jamaica apartment, you'll start to find the many fantastic ethnic cuisines of the area. Of course, you'll find burgers and American food but the best of the best will be places like Sagar Sweets which is a 100% Bengali serving up the best roast chicken anywhere.
