Which Brooklyn Neighborhoods Produce the Most and Least Trash?
Fun for Our Readers
Williamsburg/Greenpoint residents of CB1 produce 66.2 pounds of garbage per person per month, which is average. Bushwick produces a little more—68 pounds. As a general rule, trash production increases as you travel east and south of Prospect Park: neighborhoods like Flatbush, Sheepshead Bay, Marine Park and Mill Basin produce more trash than Brooklyn Heights, Fort Greene, Bed-Stuy, and Sunset Park.
