Bushwick. Granted, not the nicest area, but there are a lot of creative types around, and it's quickly becoming convenient (in terms of shopping and eatery). It's pretty much what Williamsburg was like 10 years ago or so (with a little longer of a commute). If you like loft-style living, there are tons. Most of the two bedrooms in the area are railroad style, so unless you're living with a significant other or alone, they aren't that comfortable.
