You are making a great choice to move to Long Island. Long Island has everything you could want; a city on one end, rural farms on the other. Its as well just doesnt have good looks, but is such a great place to have kids and grand children. I am a resident of Smithtown, but i recommend a less populated place if thats what you desire. Eatons Neck is a great area, pricy tax wise, but it's beautiful. Not far from Northport or Huntington, Northport with old street car tracks showing, and Huntington showing its age with blue histroical signs every which way you look. They have shopping, beautiful parks, and Eatons Neck, private beaches. Other places you may want to look into are Stony Brook, or various towns in Nassau County on the the North Shore. Smithtown, with new construction down by the Nissequage river near a beautiful golf course, Smithtown Landing, is a great place to look int. Go to MLSLI.com, its a great site!

Long Island doesn't have looks ??? The rocky north shore beaches , the rich colors of the North Fork farms and wineries , the winding hills of Centerport, the majesty of the ocean , the unspoiled Pine Barrens ? Our charming little towns like Port Jefferson and Babylon ? Not have looks ?

Try Munsey Park..you should be able to squeeze a house out for around 8.
Older homes,good schools.and the lirr to the city is the best line out there.If you can keep up with the jones you should be ok
LOL, if you can find anything under 9, Ill buy one in a heartbeat...once in a while a odd cape one facing the tracks may be at close to a mil. in Munsey
Great Schools/Reasonable Taxes/Miles of Beachfront/Breathaking Waterviews/5000 Acre Nature Preserve/Gateway to the North Fork and the Pine Barrens (and only 60 mi from NYC) but above all a SOLID sense of community and a humble pride that can only be described as inspiring.
I am from Florida and my wife was originally from Long Island, but has been in Florida since the late 70's. We are planning on moving to Long Island within a year and have been researching neighboorhoods. My question:
What are the best Long Island neighborhoods for families and why?
Don't count out the nicer areas of brooklyn and queens either. Forest hills, park slope, cobble hill, sunnyside, the rockaways, sheepshead bay, the list goes on. All the advantages of living in new york city without the manhattan price tag. Good schools, good restaurants. And you don't need a car if you don't want one.
