The Bronx is a magical place full of extremes that makes us one of the most special places on earth.
From the South Bronx to one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in the country; from urban grit to suburban estates and landlocked neighborhoods to ones completely surrounded by water.
In short: There’s something for everyone who lives here and that’s almost 1.5 million residents. So many that if The Bronx were an independent city, we’d be the 8th largest in the nation.
And it’s those 1.5 million people that make this place so special. So much so that we’re considered the most diverse county in the country where if you took two residents at random there’s an over 85% chance that both speak different languages other than English.
