Among our recommended neighborhoods for college students and other newcomers to the city is Hamilton Heights, a vibrant section of Harlem that's also known for being where the late, great, Lin-Manuel Miranda-musical inspiration, Alexander Hamilton, once resided (hence the name).

But in general, the area is a destination for buyers who can still find value, compared to other pricier parts of Harlem and the city, as well as plenty of restaurants. Here, a sampling of what's available for viewing, for both starter buyers and those with bigger budgets, this weekend:
