What was once an enclave of tight-knit Russian and Eastern European residents called “Little Odessa” has grown and further developed into a diverse, beach-front residential community. And, while nearby Coney Island may be a go-to for a summertime visit, Brighton Beach is the type of neighborhood where you can have your cake (+/- 10 minute walk to the sand and waves) and eat it, too (a quiet place to call home).
For new residents looking for a “gotta have it all” kind of mover, look no further than Piece of Cake Moving and Storage.

Our top Brighton Beach Moving Tips
Beaches, beaches, beaches: Brighton Beach is surrounded by other notable beachfront neighborhoods including Coney Island (and Ocean Parkway) to the west and Manhattan Beach (as well as Corbin Place) to the east. Up north, you’ll find Sheepshead Bay on the other side of Belt Parkway and of course, to the south you’ll run straight into the boardwalk along the Atlantic Ocean.
There’s much more than waves and sand that brings folks to this part of Brooklyn. We think there’s a few key details to know before you settle in, including:
- Making your way to and from Brighton Beach. Many residents seem to have their own vehicles. If you find you prefer driving yourself, you may look into how easy it is to park where you plan to set down your roots in the neighborhood. If you plan to be on the move a lot within the boroughs, especially commuting to Manhattan, prepare for a longer ride. The Metropolitan Transit Authority’s B and Q trains will get you from the station at Brighton Beach Avenue to Midtown Manhattan in a just under an hour. Brighton Beach Avenue is where you’ll also find a number of the MTA’s bus stops if you choose to get around that way. What you may sacrifice in time you may save in dollars, as a ride on the subway or bus only costs $2.75 per ride. Frequent riders can purchase a monthly unlimited Metrocard for $127, which for many may be less than a car payment!
- Cost of housing. Though the area is noted as being quite residential and about half of the neighborhood occupants are families, there are few single-family homes. Many of the housing options are co-ops and condos, of which over 70 or so have been erected in the last decade. For those hoping to purchase a home, a condo may sell for around $100K. A co-op may set you back about $300K to start. Locations with more bedrooms and luxury apartments may start around $500K per unit and even go up to about $1M. Renting a home is touted as much more affordable than other parts of NYC. For reference, a one-bedroom apartment rents for around $2,200 a month. It’s about $500 more a month than the national average for a one-bedroom, but still less expensive than some of the neighborhoods in the borough. What’s more, what you get for the money you spend is quite a lot more — more square footage, that is!
- Life in this neighborhood is a beach. If you like walkable sites, this part of the borough is for you. Both Coney Island and Manhattan Beach are within easy walking distance, when you need a change of scenery. However, there’s plenty to explore within the neighborhood bounds. If you want to sample the flavors of your neighbor’s cuisines, you’ll find a number of European and Russian eateries. Including 718 Bistro, where you can try the French/European-fusion fare and order Russian vareniki dumplings as a starter and chicken caprese as your main. Perhaps you’re craving borscht (Ukrainian or green) and blintzes, then it’s over to Ocean View Cafe. Or, you could make a night of it with dinner and drinks at Tatiana Restaurant and Bar. Whenever you’re ready to break a sweat after a fantastic meal, there’s the basketball courts at Brighton Beach Playground or indoor swimming pool at the Shorefront YM-YWHA. Then of course, you’ll want to make time to relax with a schvitz and a soak in one of the nearby Russian bathhouses in Coney Island or Sheepshead Bay.
