New York City

Map NYC Queens.jpg

Introduction: Queens (Queens County), on Long Island east of Brooklyn, is geographically the largest borough, the most ethnically diverse county in the United States, as well as the most ethnically diverse urban area in the world.Historically a collection of small towns and villages founded by the Dutch, the borough has since developed both commercial and residential prominence. Queens is the site of Citi Field, the home of the New York Mets, and hosts the annual U.S. Open tennis tournament. Additionally, two of the three busiest airports serving the New York metropolitan area, LaGuardia Airport and John F. Kennedy International Airport, are located in Queens. (The third is Newark Liberty International Airport in Newark, New Jersey.)

All of the outer boroughs have their ethnic elements, but Queens is the most diverse of all of them. With neighborhoods like Astoria (Greek and Italian), Sunnyside (Turkish and Romanian), Jackson Heights (Hispanic and Indian) and countless others, Queens is the quiet borough "for everyone else." It's not as glamorous as Manhattan or as brutal as the Bronx or as populous as Brooklyn, but its character comes from its unique cultural blend. In the nights to come, many Kindred will probably find themselves establishing havens in Queens, whether out of affordability or a chance to claim some of the overlooked but worthwhile domains in the borough.
