I grew up in Elmont which used to be a nice area, but now, not so much.
My mom lives on the border of West Hempstead & Franklin Square - my litte brother is in Franklin Square schools and loves it!
My dad has lived in Floral Park his whole life and he loves it there. FH's cousin and a bunch of our friends live in FP too, they all like the area!
We just moved to Rockville Centre and we love the town! It's close to everything and the people are really friendly. The school district is good too!
New Hyde Park is really close to queens and definitely in that price range!
FH and I just bought a house in W. Babylon last year. We love it! I'm from out east and he's from queens so it was right smack in the middle. The property taxes were great. School district is pretty good. We really love it here. If you are a first time buyer try calling long island housing partnership. They got some great incentives. Great time to buy, good luck.
crashing: Wantagh, Massapequa, Plainview. Maybe North Merrick or North Bellmore
We are moving to Lake Grove. We rented an apartment but its also the area we want to live in when we do buy a house.

No more than 500k and I dont want to go as far out as riverhead.
Oh I am looking for a single family house.
I live in Huntington now in the Elwood School District.
FH and I just bought a house in South Huntington in the South Huntington district, which is not as good as Elwood, but not a bad area.
If you're looking in Western Suffolk, I recommend, East Northport (Elwood Schools or Harborfields Schools), South Huntington (South Huntington Schools), Melville (Half Hallow Hills Schools), Commack (Commack Schools).
If you're looking in Nassau, I grew up in Williston Park which is part of the Herricks School district and is great. Neighborhood has changed a lot over the years - went from a predominantly Jewish neighborhood to more of a melting pot - about 70% of the population is now some form of Asian (mostly Korean, Chinese, Indian) and 30% is white (of some denomination). Personally, I liked growing up this area because it was very consistent with the 'real world' and not a neighborhood totally inhabited by one race/culture. When I was there, it was about 50% minority and 50% white.
Other areas in Nassau that are good are Manhasset, Oyster Bay, and Garden City, but might all be above your price range.
