Chelsea



New York
Once a working-class community, Chelsea more recently became a posh address. As rents in Greenwich Village rose, the vibrant gay community moved upwards to occupy Chelsea's many brownstones and loft spaces. Others followed, and today it reflects New York's ethnic and cultural diversity. Located on the West Side of Manhattan, Chelsea is notable for its shopping and nightlife as well as its art. There are over 200 art galleries in Chelsea, and it is known for its filmmakers and photographers despite an increase in job diversity these past few years.
