Though previously considered part of the neighboring areas of Sheepshead Bay and Midwood, this residential area has now struck out on its own to stake claim on the Brooklyn borough. Its Spanish-style terrace homes and proximity to the highly-rated James Madison High School (of which the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader-Ginsberg as well as U.S. Senators Bernie Sanders and Chuck Schumer were graduates) may be a great option for families. All in all, if you’re not ready to leave the vicinity of a major metropolitan area but hear the siren song of suburban life, Madison may be just the right mix for you.

Our top Madison Moving Tips
This small Brooklyn spot is bounded by Kings Highway to the north and Avenue U to the south. East to west, the neighborhood spans the distance between Nostrand Avenue and Ocean Avenue. Nearby Brooklyn borough neighborhoods include Sheepshead Bay, Homecrest, Midwood, and Marine Park.
As a new resident of the area, you’ll certainly want to know more than just the geographical location. Here’s a few details we think might be useful to know:
- Nearby attractions. Though Madison is largely a residential neighborhood, that doesn’t mean there aren’t things to see and places to go close by. You’ll be so near to the coast, you’ll almost taste the salt of the ocean breeze in the air. Brighton Beach, also known as Little Odessa, is a short jaunt away. There, you can sample flavors favored by the large Russian and Eastern European immigrant population that call the laid-back neighborhood home. If you’d rather get into the hustle and bustle of it all, make your way towards Coney Island. The beach and boardwalk there is often full of folks who may be coming and going from Luna Park. It’s the home of the famous Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating contest on July 4th each year and many thrilling rides like the Cyclone roller coaster or the Wonder Wheel ferris wheel. If you’d rather commune with the wonders of nature, venture a bit further to the east to Marine Park. As the borough’s largest greenspace, it contains 530 acres of protected marsh and grassland. The park’s Salt Marsh Nature Center hosts many educational programs for visitors. There’s also a golf course, playgrounds, bocce ball courts, and more. You really won’t have to go too far from your homebase to find excitement!
- Getting around: Despite a number of major thoroughfares (looking at you Nostrand Avenue, Bedford Avenue, and Ocean Avenue), this part of the borough really doesn’t have its own MTA subway stop. The closest stop you might find is the Q subway train stop at Kings Highway or at the southern part of the neighborhood at Avenue U. There are a number of buses in the area, one of which runs along Nostrand Avenue that may help you get to a few other subway lines. At $2.75 per ride for a bus or subway trip, it may be worth it to you to make a few transfers on public transit to get to where you’re going. However, if you bring your personal vehicle with you during your move or plan to get one, you’re in luck. Plenty of streets in the area do not have alternate side parking that allows for the city to do periodic street cleaning. So, if you drive your own personal vehicle, you may have fewer headaches trying to find street parking. Though that might be the case, residential owners are still responsible for keeping the nearby sidewalk clear.
- Housing cost. Brooklyn is having its moment as a trendy place to live. That’s why you’ll see higher rents and home prices in the borough. However, housing costs are generally lower in this particular neighborhood. If you’re hoping to set down roots in Madison by buying a home, the average sale price for one was around $629k, which is much lower than what you might pay in downtown Manhattan or even in some of the more western Brooklyn neighborhoods. However, homes can range anywhere from $149K to $4 million. For those in the market for a rental, the average monthly rent in the neighborhood ($1,692 per month) is a fraction of what the typical Brooklyn average is ($3,194 per month). Either way you go, living in Madison means being an NYC resident without necessarily paying the same NYC prices!
