@@lemonfridge5119 He's talking about the neighborhood itself. Which it literally is, Brighton Beach - Hove beach. In the UK, in the name of the place it's named after the full city name is Brighton and Hove.
Majority of those people are Russian speaking, but not actually from Russia. A lot from pre and post soviet countries. Majority are from Ukraine. They even used to call it little Odessa because it's near the Ocean and full of Ukrainians. Also majority are Jews. Almost all ethnic Russians are orthodox christians, and they're very rare in Brighton.
Admiral Ackbar Yeah, Odessa mainly speaks Russian (78%) despite the fact that majority of Odessa are Ukrainians (62%). A sort of cultural paradox. But im curious what is actual percentage of Russian born people in Brighton beach
That's right. I used to live in the area. Many of them are from, as you stated, former-USSR. Jews are majority and I have noticed many Kazakhs as well. I like the area especially Sheepheads Bay area. Like most immigrants, they keep it to themselves and pretty nice people. I tried to flirt with some girls and had a little hard time since they don't speak English very well, but they were never rude. I wonder where are those actual Russians Orthodox Christians live in NYC? I am just curious. I miss that area. For some reason, I have a huge interest in Slavs and Balkans history. Russia and her people had a long history and contributed art, literature, science and many others. I think Russiya is coming back.
@@hansibryan Some of the young ones I know usually move out of New York and become "Americanized" or sometimes the opposite they would move back to Russia because they couldn't adapt to the American culture.
birghton beach is called little oddesa, becasue of its large amount of jews from ukriane, russian jews, they just speak russian, but in brigthon beach there is not many ethnic russians, mostly ukrainian jews
No, the russian jews came in, in the 80s, but they are old now, and ethnic Russians have since migrated there and are now the majority the last 15 years
I live in Brighton beach and my commute is about no more then an hour to midtown in the morning. On a bike its about 30-45 minutes depending on traffic. Its very livable and fruits and veggies are cheaper. Russian food is also healthier then the supermarket groceries.
Hello. This seems like a great place to stroll around. Like it is a small village in the middle of a big city. Looks so cozy, people seem so relaxed and simple. As if time stood still and you are back in the days when everybody got along and there was no drug abuse or violence or any other obscenities. Just a clean environment, good people and then of course , right next to the beach. If I could , I'd be there right now! Would have a good time just overhearing people speak Russian, glimpsing into those fur- stores whilst hearing that beautiful music and eating typical dishes. Thanks so much for sharing such a nice video. Spasiba ! 😄👍🍀❤️🌷 Congratulations from Belgium 🇧🇪
rivka coverdale Interesting. My grandfather still speaks the language, as he was raised with it. He has various books and things from his childhood, all in Yiddish. I feel bad because he has no one to speak it with.
Yes, russian dude seeing the opportunity to speak in his native language meanwhile the video is in english and all the other people in the comments are speaking english....
As someone who is 30% Russian I love going to Brighton beach from where I live on the jersey shore I enjoy it I have been to Russia tons of times and it reminds me of being over there
To those of you who actually live in or know the Brighton Beach area, I grew up and lived in nearby Coney Island (Luna Park Housing), before and during the great Russian immigration migration of the 80's. Fond memories...
@@mahmoudq4286 I know but I mean if it wasn't for the trains being literally right above the shopping center than it wouldn't feel as ghetto as it is. And I don't blame you for moving out. I'm glad I never had to live there but I did visit the neighborhood many times with my mom as a child.
I lived in Brooklyn all my life. The Russian immigrants who immigrated to New York we're Jews and former members of the Soviet Union. Most of the Russian seniors who live there have grand children. Not all Russians are old.
'Soviet' would be more appropriate term here, doesn't look like there's many ethnic Russians there, so it's about mentality first of all. Who are they ethnically? Just listen to the music used in the video...
Interesting place to visit once in a blue moon. My observations: an appreciable portion of people who live in Brighton Beach are retirees living in subsidized housing; very difficult to own a car there due to parking limitations - not uncommon to park blocks and blocks away; extremely cold during winter months due to the winds blowing off the ocean; everyone there is dressed to the nines all the time so they won't be gossiped on; densely populated area offers no privacy; many shady people there
When I came to NYC in 1991 I visited Russian Orthodox church on Pennsylvania ave.. That people were or White Imperial officers or real Russians That run away from Juden kommissaren... We even had our friend babyshka SONIA BUBELIS... She was from.Belorusia and consider herself as real Russian. Ones I almost fail fom laughing. She ask a Russian jew woman Such a question": Vy....zenchina.. Kto?vy..ne poxozu...na Rysskogo.. Vy.....zhid? I almost.. fail on a ground... In Russia before 1917.... Jew.....were called .real name zhid..juden.... Well .Long time ago I had A chance to see a real RUSSIANS...
Nobody in Russia wears this stupid fur caps. ) Maybe only in winter time some old soviet people do. Russia on the way of globalism. Young people wear west culture clothings. By the way Brighton beach is not russian hood, most people from former USSR in brooklyn is ukrainians and jews.
I like to spend the day at Brighton Beach when I visit New York. The markets have interesting foods and other items like clothing and other goods. I enjoy ethnic markets and seek them out whenever I travel. You can get good, inexpensive dairy products lke tvorog, smetana, and kefir in these markets. I don't know if I could live in Brighton Beach, but I still enjoy the place.
I love this, I spent a week here with my Russian /German/USA love.. I miss him dearly.. he's one in a million.. he's tall sexy wonderful not unlike the man in the vid.. so thumbs up.. Brooklyn is a winner..
They are khazars from the soviet union, they are from the soviet union but most are not even real Russians. Khazars are eurasian from southern russia who think they are jews.

You really don't want to. Unless you have really good connections with the people, you will either be an outcast or treated like trash. Hell even most Russian-speaking people who live in that neighborhood are treated horribly. Visiting Brighton Beach is fine. Living there is another story.
Just like GTA IV Liberty City's Hove Beach. Home of Roman Bellic. LOL

no actually it was renamed to "little russia" since around 2012
I am a Serb from NY born and raised, and I know many Russians from Brighton, but i'd say 85% of the Russians that I know are Jewish.
Mostly jew not ethnic Russian
Every comment In here is incorrect 🤦 it was named little Odessa way before 2012.

What a charming image. Hove Beach, next to the docks. Immigrants here do not make it very far from the boats they come in on.
The Russian part of my Family came here around 1917 'till we left Coney Is. in the early 1970's , Thanks for the memories !
do you speak russian
Iryush not really Only a few words & I don’t spell anything in Russian
brbnews hahaha
Makes no sense playing Balkan Gypsy music when u talk about russians
true
Did?.. did they really put gypsy music?
You know you're in Brighton Beach when you have to pause mid conversation cause of the trains rattling on the tracks.
Jews not Russians.
First Russians can be Jews, and secondly is being Jewish supposed to be a bad thing?
BluescreenBandit Oh, so you're one of those. Figures.
orthdox christians not JEWS
we have saying in russia "speaking russian and orthodox - then it is russian".
Jews are a minority there now
Cousin! Let's go bowling!
Parece um lugar legal pra se visitar! Quem sabe um dia eu o faça!
I lived in Brighton Beach and loved it. I miss the food, the peopke, the culture, and that beach.
rivka coverdale I'm curious to know, is Yiddish spoken at all in Brighton Beach?
Yiddish a little. Mainly Russian. :)))
rivka coverdale Interesting. My grandfather still speaks the language, as he was raised with it. He has various books and things from his childhood, all in Yiddish. I feel bad because he has no one to speak it with.
***** Keep telling yourself that, tough guy.

i’m a kazakh living in brighton
When I visited Brighton Beach last December, my mom said she was glad we didn't live there when we immigrated to the US in 1999.
It's mainly because of the Q train running above ground in the middle of the neighborhood, which ruins everything and makes it appear ghetto.
Amateur Professional it is ghetto that’s why i moved oit
@@mahmoudq4286 I know but I mean if it wasn't for the trains being literally right above the shopping center than it wouldn't feel as ghetto as it is. And I don't blame you for moving out. I'm glad I never had to live there but I did visit the neighborhood many times with my mom as a child.
Correction: it's no russian place, it's a russian speaking jewish place. There are no orthodoxe churches there, but lots of synagogues
Brighton Beach today looks like some Sransk in 90s. Russia is more advanced today than this part of the US
Why author of this video used such transylvanian soundtrack? It sounds little a bit offensive to me. I'm Russian, but Dracula isn't my ancestor.
Thank you Very Much this is nice video

You don't have to there's a lot of Russian-speaking people that also live on the West Coast like California.
