Long Island has carved out a reputation over the last couple of decades as an excellent residential community. Considering its location near New York City, there is no reason for any place in Long Island to try to compete with the cosmopolitan delights of what is arguably the most exciting city in the world. Rather, the communities of Long Island have carved out a niche for offering high quality of life standards for its residents.

Towns like North Bellmore capture the Long Island spirit. Located in beautiful Nassau County, North Bellmore is not going to knock anybody out with shopping centers and world-class attractions. Rather, the appeal of North Bellmore lie in the more modest claims of having one of the best school systems in the Empire State, containing a high safety record, and being home to neatly laid out neighborhoods that sparkle with suburban friendliness.

While North Bellmore isn't the type of place that you will go to on a holiday, it's the type of place that you would want to live in. Home to over 20,000 residents, North Bellmore contains a thriving local economy that makes it a bit of an affluent community in Long Island. However, with its ample affordable housing and low cost of living, North Bellmore is also the type of place where a person can begin a career. With New York City being just 26.1 miles away, North Bellmore is able to offer the comfort of a small town with access to the big city.
