Chelsea is from 15th Street to 34th Street between the Hudson River
and 6th Avenue
Cheaper Apartments are north of 23rd Street into the 30s
Mom's Opinion?: I love Chelsea and feel very comfortable there.
I feel very comfortable leaving my daughter in the area. There are
many very wealthy and famous people who live in Chelsea. Chelsea is
very diverse with young professionals, families as well as the largest gay population in the
city. I find the people in the area to be some
of the nicest people in the Manhattan. The streets are clean and I
feel comfortable walking there at night.
Some parts of Chelsea are bustling and really busy with high rises and
stores and some parts are really quiet and residential.
There are a few homeless people here and there, but really nothing to
worry about in my opinion. Most of them just leave you alone.
Use common sense and you'll be all set. Actually, there are tree
lined streets that make you feel as if you are in a very residential area.
Very nice quiet neighborhoods where people walk their dogs and buy flower
bouquets from the corner flower shop while walking their children in baby
carriages. There are a few places in Chelsea that are a little more
urban, but for the most part, its one of my favorite places in the city.
Nov 2008 Update: Chelsea is the place to be. Very safe, lovely
people, have not run into any problems in the past six months. It's
close to everything. If you don't have a lot of money to rent there,
you can find a sublet and rent with some roommates which is common in
Chelsea .... and in all of Manhattan for that matter. Everyone is
friendly, there are young families with babies, gays are friendly,
respectful and pretty much stay to themselves from my experience. It
is an awesome place to live... one of the best places in the city.
The area has lots of little gift shops, antiques, galleries along with
bars, great restaurants, grocery stores and close to the subway stops.
April 2009: I walked up and down 9th and 8 Avenues from 23rd Street
in Chelsea to 42nd Street in Midtown. I saw a change at about
25th street to 42nd on those two avenues. 7th Avenue was great all
the way up. New York City Housing Authority projects begin around
24th. As you walk up 8the Avenue, you find more broken down parts of
the city. People hanging out with no apparent purpose.
However, as the other lesser parts of the city go, if we were in a pinch,
I would reluctantly choose this area for an apartment. It was just
good enough to say, live, but not go out at night without caution.
Once you get down to 23rd Street on 8th and 9th (which is in Chelsea,
below Hell's Kitchen), I feel it is very safe and feel comfortable walking
around late at night.

Mom's opinion: Don't worry about this prison. No one really
even knows its there. I've walked by it several times and didn't
even know there was a prison there. Update: April 2009.
You don't even know the prison is there - at all.

In the 10th Precinct, covering Chelsea and part of Hell’s Kitchen, grand
larcenies shot up 17.2 percent. An increase in identity theft and more
thefts of bags left unattended in nightclubs, bars and restaurants
accounted for much of the grand larceny increase, according to Captain Ray
Caroli, 10th Precinct executive officer.
“If it weren’t for the increase in grand larcenies, we would have had a 10
percent reduction in total crimes instead of the 2.64 percent increase in
2004,” said Caroli. “Office creeps [thieves who prowl office buildings to
steal unattended property] and people stealing bags — or wallets from bags
— left unattended at clubs and restaurants are our main grand larceny
concerns,” Caroli added.
However, six murders were reported in the precinct in 2004 compared to one
the previous year. “All but one or two were closed out with arrests,” said
Caroli. In October, a murder in front of the Elliott Chelsea Houses
claimed the life of a resident and police arrested two suspects, also from
Elliott Chelsea and charged them with homicide. The death of a man found
in his apartment near Seventh Ave. and 23rd St. is still under
investigation.
Rape reports in the 10th Precinct declined to 16 last year from 18 the
previous year and robbery declined 14.9 percent. Felony assault, however,
rose 7 percent last year, largely attributable to club incidents in the
precinct. Assaults also rose in 2003 from the prior year. Burglaries in
the precinct declined 13.2 percent and auto theft declined 22.3 percent.

Found this great grocery store on
9th and 28th street called MET. The prices are mostly great and very
similar to the prices I used to pay in the suburbs. Some things are
even cheaper. So, I feel as if I struck gold. I shopped there
today and was really excited not to have to shop at Wholefoods. I
like Wholefoods, but I don't like their prices. The MET had a
fabulous selection or normal suburban type of food. They also have a
deals flyer so that you can find out what's on sale.
