Long Island is a great place to live and work. It has all the charms of a rural community, the support network of the suburbs, and the benefits of being a short drive to Manhattan. Both major and minor sports teams are located here, including baseball, hockey, lacrosse, and soccer teams. Outdoor activities are available to suit all interests, from hiking, biking, and horseback riding to boating, fishing, and swimming. We even have great spots for apple and pumpkin picking!  Long Island’s communities are very diverse - if you are looking for a small town, a large town, a close-knit village, or an apartment complex with amenities you will have no problem finding a place to suite your needs.
