But this "live the dream" ideal no longer exists in their "dream neighborhoods". The fact is that bohemian, artsy neighborhods are no longer located downtown. They are now primarily in Brooklyn, Queens, NJ and even the South Bronx.
If you want to live your artist/musician dream, move to Bushwick or Far East Williamsburg, which is where the highest concentration of such types live. You won't find them living downtown. Downtown is for the financial services crowd.
