One of the furthest east neighborhoods in Queens, Queens Village is a relaxed residential enclave near Nassau County. With a Long Island Railroad stop and proximity to the Cross Island Parkway, the area offers accessibility to Manhattan and Long Island and many people drive. “There’s a little more space for you to live, the schools are pretty good, everything’s convenient, and the fact of the matter is anybody can live here,” says Jeffrey Langer, who’s worked in Queens Village for 40 years and is a licensed real estate broker with Weichert Realtors Langer Homes, along with his son Matthew. “Queens is the melting pot of the world. And Queens Village is a big part of that too.”

Many colonial homes with private driveways
The majority of homes in Queens Village are colonials, many originally built in the 1920s and ‘30s, though a few Cape Cods can be found.

A single-family detached colonial can cost between $600,000 and $890,000. Larger brick and stucco homes or renovated colonials can run between $900,000 to $1.4 million. In the northern section of the neighborhood, a few coop buildings can be found along Hillside Avenue. A two-bedroom in a brick coop building might cost between $225,000 and $269,000.
Dining options, plus Key Foods and CTown
Restaurants can be found along Jamaica Avenue, offering a variety of cuisines, including Haitian and Caribbean food. Hibiscus Bar and Restaurant delivers a fusion of West Indian Guyanese and Chinese fare and Spice on a Slice specializes in Indian-style pizza.

LIRR and buses, though many people drive
