Pelham Bay is the perfect blend of urban and suburban, with one of New York City's largest parks. The neighborhood attracts young working professionals and retirees alike. Like Belmont, Pelham Bay is home to a large Italian population, so you know you can find family-run Italian restaurants to fill that pasta craving in the land of pizza. Grab a coffee and walk through Pelham Bay Park where you can people watch, bird watch, or go to a wild-life sanctuary.
