One of the most compelling reasons to move to Brooklyn is its tight-knit community. Residents here take pride in their town and warmly welcome newcomers. The village hosts various community events, such as the annual Brooklyn Irish Hills Chamber of Commerce festivals, farmers' markets, and local parades, fostering a strong sense of belonging. The friendly atmosphere and neighborly spirit make Brooklyn an ideal place to raise a family or enjoy a peaceful retirement. At Whispering Meadows, new home builder Allen Edwin harnessed that spirit of community in the gorgeous new homes available here.

The cost of living in Brooklyn is generally lower than the national average, allowing residents to enjoy a comfortable lifestyle. The affordability extends to other essentials like groceries, healthcare, and transportation, making it a financially savvy choice for homebuyers.
