Seclusion. And affordability. LI is a complete and total ripoff and it is only gonna get worse.
I have narrowed down the areas I want to move upstate. Gonna start heading up on weekends to scope it all out before I make a decision. I'm not gonna miss the beaches, bagels, pizza, or cologne.
Have you looks into the cost of a lirr commute from Suffolk and then the cost of a NYC taxi every single day?
Where n college point is this? I worked there once for a couple months. Some areas are very desolate.
I hope they are paying you a large bump in salary. I went to school up by you. How much time have you spent down here?
Would it be possible to get some land out in Suffolk and take the LIRR?
I see saw some nice houses in Centerreach--- is their WIFI on the train?
It seems the train doesn't go to College Point--- I guess I could cab it after???
Unless you are making a mint that idea is not a good one.
You should look in New Hyde Park, Floral Park, Albertson, Mineola which is in Western Nassau. I should add that is not going to be easy given your budget. Have you thoroughly researched the area so you know what you are getting into? Cable bills, Electric, Oil or gas?

It's by the East River on 14th ave...
Bump is 45K...
I have spent about a week in LI...
My wife has spent summers down there growing up---
I don't think LIRR is a viable option unless I ditch my $385 lease I have right now and share a car with my with wife which is payed off or get a smaller car payment...
I guess I could always drive in from the North---Connecticut, maybe???

I have looked into Cablevision...
I would assume the heating/electrical cost are similar...
A lot of areas around Albany---Niskayuna, Slingerlands are very similar with taxes...
