The Bronx, the northernmost of New York’s five boroughs, is home to several world-famous New York landmarks: Yankee Stadium, the New York Botanical Garden, the Bronx Zoo and the Bronx Museum of the Arts. According to the U.S. Census, it is the most diverse place in the United States. The Bronx contains both affluent communities and poor neighborhoods, as well as everyone in between. The Bronx also has New York City’s largest park, as well as booming, revitalized residential and commercial development.
