BoroughboroughtextNew York City’s boroughs are five county-level administrative divisions, with each one also being a state county. (Manhattan - New York County; Bronx - Bronx County; Brooklyn - Kings County; Queens - Queens County; Staten Island - Richmond County). NYC’s boroughs have existed since the consolidation of the city in 1898.
Community Districtcommunity_districttextCommunity Boards are volunteer-run neighborhood organizations that work on all kinds of issues pertinent to their communities, often working with elected city officials in doing so. Community Board members, who can be as young as 16, are appointed by Borough Presidents and City Council representatives. They serve two-year terms. There are 59 Community Boards in NYC, each of which represents a unique geographical area, known as a Community District. Note: as a column header, “Community Board” (which refers to a group of Board members) is often used to mean “Community District” (the geographical area) instead.
