I'm moving to Williamsburg (Brooklyn) next month. Like right in the middle of the "cool" area. Does that make me a hipster?

yep. sorry.

I don't know... at what point does a neighbourhood become post-hip? Williamsburg's almost a parody of a hipster neighbourhood, or at least it was when I lived on the outskirts five years ago. Everyone dresses out of Urban Outfitters and 9 out of 10 haircuts are asymmetrical.

Absolutely. Buy your skinny pants now.

By "cool" area do you mean the dyke-y part?

dykey part= park slope.

moreover, isn't park slope the strollers and babies part of brooklyn?

i thought we already settled this? no. ok, so yes the answer is no. i cant explain now, but living in a neighborhood does not make you a hipster. (however your moving motivation may or may not make you a hipster). i know some of the answer and i say no.

Moving to Williamsburg makes you a hipster - unless you're doing it because you really found it cheaper than living somewhere else less fashionable. One caveat: You're not a hipster if you're moving in with someone who lived there before the neighborhood became "hip" (white, gentrified, and more expensive than other parts of Brooklyn.)
