It's still like that in several pockets but the Gentrification of Bed-Stuy has improved it considerably.It's obvious that when a neighborhood improves which also improves the amenities in that neighborhood such as higher quality foods at a higher price, restaurants and cafes, etc., the overall economics improves.The cheaper stores like Family Dollar, cheaper supermarkets and Corner Delis begin to disappear.
