'''Brooklyn''' is one of the five boroughs of [[New York City]], situated at the southwestern tip of Long Island. Sometimes referred to as "America's Fourth Largest City", including on some "welcome" signs into the borough, in actuality Brooklyn is a political subdivision of New York City (however if it was its own city it would indeed be the fourth largest, after New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago). Brooklyn is also [[coterminous]] to Kings County. It is the most populated borough in the city.
    
Brooklyn is composed of a number of "neighborhoods", many of which have acheived a degree of fame on their own, such as Greenpoint, Flatbush, Coney Island, Williamsburg, and Bedford-Stuyvesant. Brooklyn has been the birthplace of many famous Americans, such as actresses Barbara Stanwyck and [[Clara Bow]], directors Woody Allen and Spike Lee, and singer Barbara Streisand, to name just a few.
