I miss: -being by the water -egg bagels (not a bagel with an egg on it!!) -Concerts at Jones Beach. That's gotta be one of the best venues in the world -Delicious pizza by the slice -my family But in general, I strongly dislike Long Island, and never fit in, despite being born and raised there. I didn't like most people, and god knows most of them didn't like me. I left for college and never lived there again. I much prefer it here. |

Plainview Old Bethpage school district.
Carvel crunchy cakes (and the coupons in the Pennysaver for buy one get one free sundaes on Wednesdays) I worked at Adventureland in the 90's Usdan - camp for the performing arts Woodbury Commons when we went to do "fancy shopping" - including the fancy Chinese food place there It was totally common to drive through five or six different towns in the course of a regular day Plainview Y - I didn't realize how awesome that place was until I didn't have access to it anymore Walt Whitman Mall to meet up with boys Broadway Mall when you were sick of the WW Mall boys Roosevelt Field Mall when you grew up Regal Deli Foodtown > Waldbaums |

Commack, (Huntington Village as an adult) 43
Been here 10 years Delis! Fire Island. I've been back a few times but to drive out to Bay Shore and then take the ferry- too much! Not taking 10 years to find a place to get a good hair cut Great pizza/Italian restaurants EVERYONE has a pool Bagels (obviously) Boardy Barn (but too old for them now anyway). Drinking on the train home |

Same. I had a very strict and paranoid mother - I was never allowed to go to a concert or club. I went to Jones Beach exactly twice in my life. |

No you are wrong. There is a part of Floral Park Queens. But there is also the village that has nice schools and beautiful houses. |
