    "I've lived in this area for almost 20 years. It's actually a peninsula in Long Island Sound. Mostly upscale with beautiful, large homes, beaches. And Shippan Point is beautiful, from there you can see Long Island across the Sound. Shippan is the best place to live if you like to live near or on the water. I do."
