Our Take

Corona is a dense, walkable Queens neighborhood that keeps you close to Midtown Manhattan, but at a steep price. The area offers plenty of transit options, a solid school system, and a lively urban vibe. If you can handle higher rents, traffic, and a moderate crime rate, it could suit young professionals and families alike.
