If Nassau and Suffolk are Long Island, is Fishers Island part of Long Island?

My comment was more sarcasm than anything. I think it iss a privilege to live on Long Island and if you don't want to consider Queens and Brooklyn being on Long Island that is great. I don't want those dirty areas part of my island anyway.

Chat Icon Chat Icon This thread is SO funny. (I needed a good laugh tonight) How is Queens not part of Long Island? There is no water separating Queens from Nassau and Suffolk. lol It is one long island, all together. An island surrounded by water. I just dont get how it can even be argued. Chat Icon Chat Icon

Brooklyn

I find this back and forth 'debate' hilarious. So for geographical purposes, Queens and Brooklyn are considered Long Island. But heaven forbid we get on the subject of taxes, then Queens and Brooklyn might as well be on Mars Chat Icon. I'll have to remember this when we sell: 'beautiful home on Long Island, near the subway, and you only pay NYC property taxes'. lol

this is suck a bizarro argument.

Queens and Brooklyn are a part of NYC. geographically they share the same location position on the Island but so do Haiti and DR...and dominicans don't call themselves Hispanolians... you don't have to cross a bridge to get from Jersey to California either, but that doesn't make Snookie a California girl.

in answer to what the questions means, I am from Brooklyn, which is situated on the island that is long, but that is not connected in any other way shape or form with the culture or politics of that land mass.

FTR, when I got out to LONG ISLAND, I take the Kosckiusko Bridge. that should count for something Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon



Thank you!

I was *just* just going to say, you don't cross a bridge to go from CT to MA or NY to CT or NY to NJ - but the people in CT are from CT, the peeps in NY are NY'ers, the people in MA and NJ are from their respective states.

Long Island is Nassau and Suffolk. Always has, always will be.

I never understood this argument.

Oh and sure, NOW you know about the Kosckiusko bridge!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon



I agree. And Brooklyn and Queens are part of the 5 Bouroughs which L.I isn't a part of Chat Icon So I never considered them part of L.I. Chat Icon

I think it goes like this. Staten Island, Bronx, Queens, and Brooklyn are all the younger siblings of Manhattan. Nassau and Suffolk would be the youngest kids and Brooklyn and Queens want them to know that they "aren't as cool" so they don't associate with them. In reality, Long Island is better because there aren't any good golf courses in Brooklyn or Queens. The only good thing they have is the Mets, and as big of a Mets fan as I am, even I realize they suck.

Re: For those who don't live on Long Island

I am from and live in Suffolk. But I did live in Brooklyn.

Brooklyn and Queens, while they share the same piece of land mass, are not Long Island. They are NYC.

Every one looks down on whoever is east of them. Until you get to the Hamptons. Chat Icon
