Kingsbridge area of the Bronx is where I lived for much of my youth. When that area started going "downhill" in the later 70's we moved to the Grand Concourse near Bedford Park. Only lived there for about a year when there was a huge apartment house fire. Haven't lived in the Bronx since, but I'm still only minutes away. I think half of Yonkers is made up of former Bronx people. Some call it Bronkers
