Town Suggestions? Western Nassau . . .

DH and I are on the house hunt, as some of you know from LIF, and I think we need to expand our search. We are in Western Nassau now and would like to stay in Western Nassau as much as possible. We made an offer on a house in Malverne, but didn't get it. So, what towns do you like / live in / would suggest? I need a good LIRR line and would even like to be able to walk to the train . . . TIA! Taxes around 10K are ok. We don't want to pay more than that.

Re: Town Suggestions? Western Nassau . . .

hicksville, mineola, GC, NHP.. im basically going down the LIRR line :)

Re: Town Suggestions? Western Nassau . . .

Thanks, Cate - I guess I should say that we have been looking:
Malverne (Westwood section)
Valley Stream (Westwood section)
Floral park
Bellerose
NHP
GC
GCS

I just feel like there must be some amazing, perfect town that I am completely overlooking . . .

Re: Town Suggestions? Western Nassau . . .

Re: Lynbrook / RVC: We've looked at some houses in Lynbrook, but I think we are priced out of RVC

Re: Hewlett - I think we are probably priced out of there as well!! We almost bought a co-op in Great Neck but didn't think to look for houses there! Thanks!

Hewlett, Woodmere, Cedarhurst, and Lawrence are all great towns- a little pricey though.

How far east are you willing to go?

Re: Town Suggestions? Western Nassau . . .

Mineola? It's a central hub so you can take almost any train into the city, taxes are under 10K (so I'm told), good school district.

We don't want to go too far east, nor too far south really. I think these are all south, right?
