Just about all of Brooklyn west of Flatbush is decent! Except for some blocks in Sunset Park, and some blocks in Red Hook. Why anyone would want to avoid this half of the borough would be a total mystery to me.
My question to you is this: have you ever set foot in this borough? (I only ask because your question was, well, kind of strange).
Aren't most of the best neighborhoods in Brooklyn west of Flatbush? Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill, Park Slope, Carroll Gardens, Windsor Terrace, Prospect Park South, Ditmas Park, Midwood... etc etc... are all west of Flatbush.
I live in Bushwick (19 years old) and to be honest, it's a hispanic neighbourhood. But! I think it's safe, i've walked in the steets drunk with two friends at 2 am and nothing has hapenned. And, not to be racist or anyhting like that but i'd rather live in a hispanic neiughbourhood than a black neighbourhood, but thats just me, black ghetto people intimidate me. Plus, i've seen quite a few white people living around here, i'm sure that in a few years more people will start moving to this area, specially since rent is going up, more people will be unable to afford apartments in williamsburg and greenpoint and will move a little further east.

Should we tell caco that Bushwick was originally German, then Italian, long before it became Hispanic? Or that neighborhoods throughout the city are always changing?

Nah...this way, it'll be an adventure!
NYC is known for it's ever changing neighborhoods.
