Glen Cove is a quiet yet decently-sized community on Long Island’s northern shore, approximately one hour away from Manhattan by car and 90 minutes away by rail. Those choosing Glen Cove apartments will enjoy a relaxed coastal lifestyle: the crime rate is very low, several beaches are easily accessible to the public, and the numerous city parks often host live music and other special events during the warmer months. Boating is quite popular here as well – the finish line of the annual Around Long Island Sailboat Race is just offshore from Morgan Park. Golfers will feel right at home here, with golf courses and country clubs all around the city.
