Hempstead overall isn't *that* bad.
There's a few really sketchy areas, like don't go there areas, but overall its fairly average burb.
The schools actually do suck. So that is definitely a deal breaker if kids are involved.
I don't fear for my life in Hempstead except on Terrace maybe.

There are more than just a few sketchy areas in Hempstead, it’s also the highest and one of the most densely populated areas in NY far from the “average burb”.

That sums up most of Nassau County.

Hempstead residents seem to be flocking to that charter school on Franklin Ave. It seems to have tripled in size in the past 5 years. Seems the new population has found a way to skirt the corrupt district.

How do you know where I've been?

You posting this just proves my point more

The posts on here are ridiculous

Its really not

Most ppl in LI just moved from BK and QNS because they were scared of black and brown ppl

And they let the authorities play on their fears.

Result = you don't want your kids playing with Hakeem, then you'll pay for it.

Have fun with those $15K property tax bills.

It's ridiculous

I see so much racial innuendos on here, its disgusting

They call it trolling, I call it the truth.

Move to Maine

I actually have great ideas for Nassau County

Majority of residents are just afraid, plain and simple!
