The northernmost point in Manhattan, Inwood is a relatively affordable place to live that's gilded with lots of green space, most notably Inwood Hill Park and Isham Park.
But even though a growing number of small cafes and restaurants have popped up west of Broadway, shops are sparse in the largely residential area. Instead, you'll find low-rise, older co-op buildings dating back to the 1950s, with a combination of older residents and Columbia students, who head north for the lower rent.
