Located in the heart of Queens, Richmond Hill is a thriving urban neighborhood that offers a somewhat relaxed lifestyle without sacrificing convenient access to the best of New York City. The neighborhood is known for its historic large-frame homes, although the local rental market includes numerous vintage apartments as well. On the north side, Forest Park provides a huge venue for outdoor recreation with a network of trails running through the popular wooded preserve.
Jamaica and Liberty Avenues serve as the major commercial corridors through the community, each lined with shops, unique restaurants, neighborhood bars, and day-to-day necessities like banks and pharmacies. These streets are also served by multiple subway stations, making it easy to hop over to Brooklyn or Manhattan anytime. Jamaica Hospital Medical Center on the east side is one of the most dominant landmarks in the community, making Richmond Hill a choice location for healthcare professionals. JFK Airport is right down the street, and CUNY’s York College is only a few blocks away as well.
