i live in long island, and i dont recommend it for people who are looking to move unless they plan to stay, long island is mostly locals.. brooklyn on the other hand is a larger demographic and more enjoyable overall.. the reverse commute.. you can take subway/ bus or long island railroad or get a car as you like.. not sure if you buying or renting, but remember long island has high taxes.. its cool you have a car as most new yorkers do not.. parking you will find will be your worst headache.. i recommend you go for the city as your job will not be in that same environment its good to have different views each day n living in the city will be better since you are not from long island. the suburbs are well.. we have nice parks.. lots of trees.. all covered in ice and snow with dirt and melted salt mud and just messy.. from warm cali to this?? oi.. i saw snow falling again earlier and the sky is all blue..
so do the reverse commute.. if you will drive the main traffik will be going in the opposite direction both times of your day so that is a plus.. its just finding a possible garage space or finding your streets to park on and opposite side parking rules bullshit.. good luck with that one..
if you do a long island rail. your monthly ticket will be around $250-$350 per month, plus remember subway/ bus monthly which is now raised.. all part of the nyc experience..
