Lynbrook *** I would love to know more about this area. Anyone from here? Very interested. New Hyde Park Oceanside Mineola Great Neck Rockville Center
We want to stay in Queens or move to Western Nassau. Thanks in advance. Can't wait to really get into the house search, though I'm worried and feel like I don't know anything about this!

can't tell you anything about those specific areas but my boss just showed me this awesome website for house hunting.
you can also try www.mlsli.com when FH was looking for a house, we used this.. it lists all houses on LI, shows pics, etc.. helped us a bunch

actually Lynbrook has one of the best school districts in the country. It wins awards all the time. I grew up there.
That said it's an incorporated village and you'll get slammed w taxes...plus they have lots of village rules. you cant park on the street at night. You WILL be ticketed. You cant pout your garbage out early. You have to have a garage. so if you garage falls down you HAVE to rebuild it.
I'd stay far away from incorporated villages. Private police means LOTS of taxes.
Oceanside is nice too. Taxes are high too. What sd's are you looking at?
