Most of the real estate in Kew Gardens, New York, is apartment or condominium-style. You will be able to find apartments of all shapes and sizes, for large and small budgets, on almost any street that you wish. For the nicer streets, you can expect to pay a premium, of course, but you can also be sure that Kew Gardens is a safe place to live, no matter where your apartment building is.
Many of the apartments in Kew Gardens are housed in the original neo-Tudor buildings of the area. There are several high-rise style buildings, as well, and duplexes or brownstones. Near Forest Park, many of the expensive single-family homes have been converted into multi-family dwellings. As you might imagine, those can be a little bit pricey because of the desirability of the neighborhood.
