The East Village
Not to be confused with the Upper East Side or even Greenwhich Village, The East Village is actually a larger portion which Greenwhich is actually a part of. And since NYU is located here, many 20 and 30-year olds tend to hang out in this area hoping to find good meals on a budget so that they can partake of a the trendier nightlife and cocktail bars found all around town. There are also a number of tattoo and piercing parlors in this area just waiting for someone to come in for a tat, or possibly to be drunk enough to get more than they bargained for.
