Maspeth is a small neighborhood in Queens that is mostly dominated by cemeteries. These are separated from the residential areas, which are mostly homes rather than apartment buildings. It is a bit inaccessible from the rest of the city because no subways go there but it has access to the Brooklyn/Queens Expressway and Long Island Railroad.

Due to some desolate industrial areas and a lack of any substantial mass transit, rental prices have stayed down. But Masbeth’s streets are packed with two-family homes and a substantial commercial strip on Grand Ave has lots of homey bars, ethnic delis and shops. Situated on a plateau, this safe nabe has fantastic views of Midtown.
