"Safe, secure and quiet at last."

After searching and searching for a quiet and safe location to live, my fiancee and I finally found our home. Super quiet neighborhood with nothing but friendly people. This feels like a perfect suburb in NJ or CT until you look out and realize you are only 5 miles from Manhattan. Public transportation is almost nill - fortunately I'm a driver and the bus goes right to the mall, where the non-driving lady works.

No more 6 cab in very unsafe Jamaica and two train transfers for the wifey, a beautiful 5 minute walk and 15 minute bus ride gets her to work. When I asked her how her first ride was she was all smiles. "I didn't have to listen to anyone's headphones, an old lady was getting on the bus and everyone tried to help her AND the bus driver fist-bumped a guy on a bike". Even the (limited) public trans is a pleasant experience. And talk about bang for your buck when it comes to rent. If you drive, EVERYTHING is nearby. Also love strolling down Grand Ave on lazy Saturdays. Can't wait for the Memorial day parade!!!
Pros
  • Private & quiet
  • Small town vibe
