Apartments for Rent in Long Island, NY
From the urban landscape of Brooklyn on the west end to the sleepy fishing village aesthetic of Montauk on the east end and the vast suburban communities in between, Long Island is home to an incredibly diverse range of people and local cultures. While both Brooklyn and Queens are technically located on the island, most New Yorkers are talking about the areas farther east in Nassau and Suffolk Counties when referring to Long Island.
Most of central Long Island is comprised of cozy suburban communities, with single-family homes dominating the rental market. This region tends to attract a lot of New York City commuters, particularly those raising families: the Long Island Rail Road makes it easy to hop into the city, and the cozy neighborhood atmosphere in communities like Massapequa and Stony Brook provide tranquil respite from the hectic pace of Manhattan.
Once you reach the eastern end of the island, the landscape is defined by the swanky beach communities of the Hamptons and the quaint villages around Montauk. The coastal lifestyle is king here, with secluded stretches of oceanfront real estate offering great beaches and scenery as well as endless opportunities for boating and fishing.
