Ridgewood (11385) voted to join queens instead of Brooklyn due to the image issues.

I heard about this one too. Didn't realize it happened so recently (1977 was only 23 years ago, right?!). I assume that's why you see so many 3-4 story walkup apartment buildings in Ridgewood like you would normally find in Brooklyn instead of the typical queens' house and gardens.
