Jackson Heights is a bustling neighborhood, famous for its apartment buildings and its diversity. More than half of its residents are immigrants, particularly Latinos, South Asians, and even its own micro neighborhood called Little India.
Jackson Heights flourished in the 1920s with unique garden co-ops that attracted middle-class professionals escaping overcrowded and overpriced Manhattan. Today, for similar reasons, Jackson Heights has again become a hot neighborhood and queens real estate market.
