'''Bushwick''' is a neighborhood within the [[New York City]] borough of [[Brooklyn]].  One of the original [[Dutch]] settlements in New Netherland, today it is a large, working class community composed of mainly Hispanic residents.  While strong [[Roman Catholic]] affiliation still persists among many residents, the time-honored local values of an honest day's work, charity, and prudence, are being usurped by an incoming "hipster" population.  As of 2007 the area remains a vibrant cultural center, albeit in a tense transitional state as its demographics shift.
