PARK SLOPE, BROOKLYN — More Brooklynites fled from Park Slope than almost any other neighborhood in the borough during the coronavirus pandemic, new numbers show.

Park Slope's 11215 was one of only two non-Manhattan ZIP codes that made a list of the top spots where New Yorkers exited between March and October, according to change of address data requests obtained by The New York Post.
