Harlem



New York
Long the national epicenter of African-American culture, Harlem was home to the Harlem Renaissance, arguably the country's most influential artistic, literary, and cultural movement. It has since witnessed some of New York's worst poverty and crime. But now, Harlem is benefiting from a booming economy, as rents rise and tourists clamor to visit its jazz clubs and Southern restaurants. Recent gentrification has led to increased property values, and even former President Bill Clinton has rented office space in Harlem, on 125th Street near the Apollo Theater.
