Community

A working to middle-class^{[clarification needed]} neighborhood, the New City Condominiums consists almost entirely of townhouses, usually in sets of 6–12. This gives it a high population density compared to most New City neighborhoods. It is known as being the most diverse neighborhood in New City, with many Russian Americans, African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Irish Americans, Italian Americans, Haitian Americans, Asian Americans, and Jewish Americans that live in the area, as well as people of other ethnic backgrounds. Being located right behind the New City Library, a few blocks down from many shopping centers on North Main St, and less than a mile north of the downtown area, make it a walkable neighborhood.^{[citation needed]}
