Homecrest is a neighborhood situated in the New York City borough of Brooklyn. It borders Kings Highway to the north, Avenue X to the south, Coney Island Avenue to the west, and Ocean Avenue to the east. Homecrest uses the ZIP Code, 11229. The area is served by Brooklyn Community Board 15. Homecrest is served by the NYPD's 61st Precinct.The community has traditionally been home to a large Italian population and has also experienced an influx of people from Latin America, Israel, Syria, Russia, and other former Eastern-bloc nations.However, in more recent years, Avenue U (Ocean Pkwy. to Ocean Ave.) has now evolved into New York City's newest Chinatown, as evidenced by the growing number of Chinese-run
fruit markets, restaurants, beauty and nail salons, and computer and
general electronics dealers. It is also the second Chinatown of Brooklyn
after the Sunset Park Chinatown,
which is much larger and have already been established in earlier
years. This Chinatown is the smallest satellite Chinese community in New
York City. Chinese residents calls this Avenue U in Chinese translation
as U大道In recent years many condominiums have sprung up. Many of the
private residential two-story homes within the community have been
renovated into mini-mansions, some estimated at a half-million to a
million dollars in estimated value. Just South Of Avenue 'V' you will
find many one-story bungalow type homes, as well as rows of one-story
brick homes with community backyards and driveways.
