Ok, this weekend hubby and I looked at a couple of units in Nob Hill Condos in Ronkonkoma (actually in Nesconset, but technically Ronkonkoma). It isn't reducing our commute which we REALLY WANT TO DO, but the maintance is very low and there is tons of parking available. Also, it is a community we could see ourselves in. We do really want a house but aren't 100% we could swing it. We also don't want a Co-Op. Our budget is around $275Kish and don't want more than 5K in taxes including maintance (Nob Hill is only $300 per month in maintance, pretty great!). We did get pre-approved for a little higher (actually $295K, but we don't want to go with our peak). I want a reasonable morgage and in Nob Hill the prices are extremely reasonable plus we have friends in there who love it and it would be only around 5 minutes to the CI LIRR train station (which we both take now). Seeing Nob Hill gave us so much happiness, but we don't really know of other condo communites under 3K like Nob Hill.
I wanted to know if there were any other condo non-co op developments on Long Island NO FURTHER EAST than Hauppauge in that price range. If not, if anyone knows of certain middle-class communities dropping into our price range that would be great. Please help. Thanks Kerry

Re: Nob Hill type of areas
Can't help you but I lived in Nob Hill from when I was a baby until age 5 and we all LOVED it there!!! I know---not saying much but we always went back and visited friends there. I still remember it very fondly. Good Luck!!!

Re: Nob Hill type of areas
thanks Jen. Can I ask you these couple of questions:
what side are you on? 1 or 2 bedroom? average age? rules or restrictions? neighbors, nice or annoying?
I've been talking to a girl a LOT on lifam. who lives there so I'm trying to compare.
