Living in Long Island, NY
Homes, neighborhoods & commute guide

Long Island stretches east from the Queens line through Nassau and Suffolk counties, from the North Shore villages on Long Island Sound to the South Shore beaches and the Hamptons. Buyers come for more space, water access and a wide range of homes, while many owners move between Long Island, Manhattan and Westchester as their needs change.

Long Island Rail Road service runs to Penn Station and Grand Central Madison. From North Shore towns on the Port Washington Branch, Manhattan is often about 30 to 45 minutes; trips from farther east take longer. Check MTA TrainTime for your exact train.

Colonials, capes, high ranches and split-levels across Nassau and Suffolk, waterfront homes on the North and South shores, co-ops and condos near the train in towns like Great Neck, and luxury estates on the Gold Coast and in the Hamptons.

Dozens of local school districts across Nassau and Suffolk; confirm the district for each address.
