UPDATE: BAD NEWS Need Bayside, Queens Info! Found a home, but need more info..UPDATE ON HOUSE

So DH and are I found a house we really love in Bayside, however I'm not sure about the area, so if any Bayside grls can let me know that would be great!

It's near Cardozo HS, The Queens College is a few short blocks away, and the LIE service road is a house away....

any thoughts?

I like Bayside. For the most part, I think it's a nice area. Though I used to have a co-worker who lived near the Horace Harding Expwy and he had cars stolen from his driveway twice. I have heard that there is a high rate of car theft in Whitestone and Bayside (I used to live in Whitestone, and my car insurance was cut in half after I moved from Queens)

Like I said I live in Whitestone so I'm not too familiar with the zoning, but a co-worker of mine went to HS there and lives in Oakland Gardens right near there...if all you're landmarks are correct then she said that area is great...what street is it? Maybe she can pinpoint the area exactly...

Re: Need Bayside, Queens Info! Found a home, but need more info..

I have lived in Bayside/Oakland Gardens/Hollis hills for many years.
I really love the area - its close to everything - shopping is great - I really really love it...

BUT - I am not so sure I would want to move to a house so close to the LIE. That is a personal preference.

Have you looked at Fresh Meadows at all? There are some nice houses there. Or Bayside HIlls.

THis woman is a great agent in the area...

Re: Need Bayside, Queens Info! Found a home, but need more info..UPDATE ON HOUSE

Bebalina - I lived RIGHT THERE 59th/223rd for 4 years with my mom & sister. Its very nice over there!!! I love it. Close to shopping, buses, schools, etc. The HH didnt bother us....maybe I am weird but the sound of the highway lulls/soothes me to sleep very well!
