Lol. Every highway is trash in the city.

Looking to Move to Mastic Beach, but its too expensive 😭

I was born in Uniondale

No shade here. I appreciate what you guys are doing. But. I came across this video and halfway thru I was wondering who was the video made for? Because almost every town mentioned has $$$ property values and little to no diversity which many young families are looking for. The exception is Elmont. But I think it’s mentioned only because of the UBS Arena. Shout out to Babylon, Valley Stream, Baldwin, Deer Park, Huntington, and so many other diverse and affordable towns with great school districts that are pitch perfect for families.

I was born and raised in Northport, I worked there for over 30 years too

the towns near port Jefferson within 15 mile radius are nice too. Stony Brook Setauket st James smithtown old field Selden patchogue Coram middle island centerport holtsville

This seems to be geared to the upper middle class. Most people in Long Island do not go to Manhattan. they work local.

People are leaving! Too expensive! It was a great place to grow up in the 80s, though!

Loved your thoughts on this! Can you talk about the different school districts in Huntington?

Why would anybody want to move to Long Island? Why wouldn't you just move out of the state?

Great neck 😂you better have big money 💴

Where you live depends on where you work and what your preferred hobbies are, also if you plan to attend local colleges. Not everyone works in ‘the city’, so all the part about the highways may not be pertinent. I grew up on Long Island and it was a great place to live. Suffolk county, north shore is incredible, especially if you like to fish and boat. The downside is, if you like mountain retreats, or like to vacation OFF the Island, it’s a dog! If you work in the city but like to go to upstate or other weekend retreats, live in New Jersey! Airports? Ugh, both Kennedy and Laquardia are traffic nightmares. The Long Island airport is a small airport easy to get to when living in Suffolk but there are limited flights. North shore has some cliffs and lovely sandy town beaches. South shore is flat but you are closer to the ocean. I lived and worked in Suffolk and never had much traffic going to work.. my husband took the Northport LI Railroad to manhattan every day and it was doable for him taking a little over an hour door to door. The cost of commuting is high. Taxes are high. Home prices are high. I miss the beaches but I live 30 minutes from the Blue Ridge mountains now…. A good trade off! It’s so much easier to travel for vacation from here.

How are the taxes?

you are almost to cross 1K subscribers congrats 🍾 😊

Grew up in Centerport and loved it!!

Sunrise highway and Montauk highway are not the same road. They are two separate east and west roadways.

One thing that was failed to be mentioned for public transit access was the local bus networks that help connect the LIRR stations to the towns and villages that are not served by the LIRR directly, and also connecting towns and villages with each other for those that do not want/cannot use a car. NICE Bus in Nassau County, SCT in Suffolk County, City of Long Beach Bus in Long Beach, and HART Bus in the Town of Huntington (mainly north of NY 25). MTA bus also serves and connects with Nassau buses in the west end of the county/east Queens, and NICE and HART/SCT connect with each other, allowing for easy connectivity between the two systems. Fares are also really cheap as well. Buses travel on main local roads like Routes 24, 25/25A, 27/27A, 106, 107, 109, 110, 111, 112, 114, as well as many many others. Many middle island towns like Mineola, Hicksville, Brentwood, Central Islip, Hempstead, Lake Grove (Smith Haven), Garden City (Roosevelt Field) have bus hubs with connectivity to other routes and/or LIRR train access. Most LIRR stations have bus access. Only E Rockaway, Oceanside, Centre Av, Nassau Blvd, Oyster Bay, Plandome, Locust Valley, Bethpage, Westwood, Cold Spr Hbr, Pinelawn, St James, Speonk, and Westhampton do not have buses within a 10 min walk of the station. Every other LIRR Station not mentioned has bus service from one of the four agencies that are in Nassau/Suffolk Counties, whether it's On-Demand/mini or Fixed route bus service. TLDR, Long Island has buses that connect towns with other towns and LIRR stations for those that don't have car access.

The only restaurant you mention by name is delfuego? Really?

Northshore 💯 western Suffolk!

just watching this video overall you're def more geared towards the suffolk county area which i currently reside in. I dont think its overall quality of life is better than nassau county in my opinion living in both my entire life nassau i hate it but it is significantly more diverse, better opportunity. And in certain areas better on the taxes compared to the areas you're gearing towards. I personally like the hicksville bethpage levittown area its more suburb than suffolk it feels like ur in upstate when u travel certain areas is docile less opportunities higher on tax when your towards the water and overall food quality is trash

To live under the Earth, you cannot live in Long Island. You have to live on it please learn I’m 73. I never lived in Long Island. I always lived on it.

North shore Nassau county is the best area to live in, you just need deep pockets😊😊😊

Brentwood is very safe and beautiful 😂

You are forgetting kings and queens county which are technically on long island

All of these towns are great for young people who don't mind driving on congested roads and can afford to buy a house in NY's suburbia. I prefer eastern Long Island, where I can hide away from the summer crowds in a more rural setting, but still have access to anywhere I want to go on the LIRR.

obviously video created by a Nassau County dude....ugh

😆 all the reasons why you moved away are the same reasons of why I love long island, except for the traffic obviously. I love this place so much and look forward to moving back there when my husband is done with the military. Right now we're in the middle of nowhere Kansas and gosh do I miss LI. ❤

amazing, Nassau county has now taken over Queens and Brooklyn from New York City!

121 Places in the USA called “Long Island”.

I miss Long Island so much! Been in Arizona since 2017 because it was $650 month for a 1 bedroom apartment. How are the Apartment prices on Long Island now?? Our rents went way up in AZ now I pay $1500+electric!

I grew up in Greenlawn, not coincidentally between two of your choices - Huntington and East Northport. It was a great place to live and grow up in. It's a little more upscale than East Northport and sleepier than either, but handy to both, and Northport. And Harbofields is a superb school district.

If Robert Moses diverted the NSP sharply to the south to avoid building through the wealthy estates of west bury in the early 30s …why did the LIE /495 follow a route 30 years later that was almost a mirror of what the NSP was supposed to have been in the 30s ?

And you spelled Bellmore wrong.

With west Babylon little east neck road north is a very bad place once u pass that border wyandanch is a terrible place to live, there's no stores and a lot of drugs.

Selden born and raised and own here. Everyone is leaving Long Island 🤷‍♀️

The home is gorgeous. Great job!!

Long Island is over, taxes are high and a lot of abandoned commercial buildings, businesses are leaving. Long Island City is the coolest part of Queens close to Manhattan.

When talking about Merrick, I can't believe you didn't mention the proximity to the Nautical Mile!

15:10 You guys are getting better, but why are you showing B-Roll of Manhattan when you’re talking about Long Island? If I can spot it, I can edit better.

Affordability😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 what a joke

What about Hempstead? 😅😅😅

“On Long Island” Anyone who grew up “ON Long Island” know it’s “on” not “in” Long Island

Don't move to Long Island except for university or if ur very rich. Its expensive and the jobs here pay awful. But the universities are top tier and if ur rich its super segregated, you won't have to see poor people except when they serve you. The infrastructure was setup so busses can't easily transverse the island to prevent poor people from getting around.

Long Island has 4 Counties (Kings/Brooklyn, Queens, Nassau, & Suffolk) .... Not 2!

#1 team “In” Long island?🧐

As someone who was born and raised in New York City and been to Long Island my entire life. Even though I don't live in New York State anymore, this is the most informative video about Long Island I've seen. I now know that taxes on Long Island vary by community.

Folks, stay far away from Long Island and New York State all together. Nothing but high taxes, horrible traffic and angry drivers. It's a complete mess. The state is out to get you and will make you pay for its complete mismanagement. The LIRR is an expensive disaster of a train as well. The cops will pull you over every chance they get and you will be in court once a month for bogus tickets.

ON Long Island, not in.

ON not in Long Island
