Queens



New York
From Flushing to Astoria, Queens is experiencing a quiet renaissance, as refugees from Manhattan's high rents continue to discover what this working-class borough offers its residents. As New York's largest borough and home to many immigrants, it's known for rich ethnic diversity. A hodgepodge of dozens of unique neighborhoods with distinct identities but no solid boundaries, the borough is peppered with inexpensive ethnic restaurants. The young professinal population is on the rise as well as the artistic scene in western Queens. Queens is also home to two airports, the Mets' Shea Stadium, Flushing Meadows Park, the Kaufman Astoria Studio and the American Museum of the Moving Image.
