    "Compared to other areas Whitestone has larger lots and more single family homes. Most front yards are well kept, and relatively quiet.while bus is needed to get to trains, it is relatively a short ride and to the end stop of the 7 train. There are to a of bused in flushing. Relatively high and stable home ownership means you are likely to know your neighbors. "
