Long Island is an island easy of New York City. We have the north and south shore. North tends to be richer whereas the South shore tends to be poorer. I am from the North Shore and I live in a beautiful house in a beautiful place that I wouldn't trade for anything. The cost of living on LI is extremely high but it's so worth it. There is always a beach nearby which is great. And we can't forget about the famous Hamptons. The Hamptons consist of very high end real estate and New York's elite. I personally own 2 houses in the Hamptons. One is located in Southampton - where the old money is. And the other is located in East Hampton. Both towns are absolutely stunning and I will say this straight out - the truth is that yes, Long Island does have a ton of wealthy people and a lot of towns are very rich and glitzy. I mean who wouldn't want to live in a place like Long Island. I particularly love the Hamptons because that is our summer vacation spot. During the summer the Hamptons are flooded with Upper-East Siders of NYC. I can definitely say that a lot of Long Islander's are Upper-East Siders that live in a beautiful place rather than the city. (I love the city too) We also own a house in Florida, and I have to say that nothing compares to the glamourous and wealthy lifestyle of a Long Islander.
"You're from Long Island?"
"Yes I am"
"You must be rich!"
The best place in the world
drive an hour to get to a huge city drive and hour in the opposite direction get to some of the best beaches in the country. & has the best bagels and pizza
Yo Let’s go to Long Island it’s the best place in the world
Beautiful natural scenery + Beaches. A LIRR ride away from NYC, Billy Joel, Cold Cheese Pizza, Montauk, Kings Park Psych Center, Fire Island Oysters (my favorite), Amityville Horror house, Alec Baldwin, Lindsay Lohan, Theodore Roosevelt, White kids with Lacrosse sticks, investment bankers, trust fund babies, irish + italian + jewish people .. . .. . . anything I am missing? OH and FUN FACT: Jaws was not actually based on Massachusetts! It was based on Long Island!
Long Island = (Lawng Eye-Lind)
An island within the state of New York
This Island is probably not what you think, It’s not like the British Indian Ocean Territory or Solomon Islands, it has Towns, Villages, Farms and more
As a Long Island citizen I disagree to the people who say there is only ghettos, obviously there is sketchy spots in Long Island but there’s not all, there’s also some really rich places
“How was your trip to Long Island?”
“It was fun but Arizona was better”
A pretty sweet place. It can get kind of hectic in some parts, but it has the best food and beaches in the world.
long island is cool
To take one's virginity.
"Last night was crazy dude, I saw Josh getting his Virgin Island colonized."
"What does that mean?"
"To colonize one's Virgin Island is to take one's virginity."
"WHAT?? Who did he lose his virginity to then?"
"I was too drunk, can't remember."
Arguably the best commuter rail service in the United States.
