If you're looking for a neighborhood with tree-lined streets and quaint coffee shops, Midtown isn't it. The neighborhood is more of a center for business than a residential community, but it puts everything close at hand for those who dwell here. Skyscrapers rise above congested streets, tourists flock to Broadway shows and Times Square, and thousands of commuters pass through Grand Central Terminal, Pennsylvania Station, and the Port Authority Bus Terminal every day.

The real estate options in Midtown can be diverse; surprisingly affordable apartments can be found alongside some of the city's most expensive properties. The headquarters of many global corporations line Sixth Avenue, while Fifth Avenue is an upscale retail destination with stores from some of the world's best-known brands.
