6 Nick Court, Yaphank, NY 11980

"I don’t know I have a car so it’s not a problem for me. I don’t know about people taking public transportation, but there is a bus stop not too far from me so I guess it’s acceptable"

"Including the historic district, the hamlet is a rural exurb of New York City roughly equidistant from the city and Montauk Point and also between Long Island Sound on the north, and the Atlantic ocean on the south. Located in its boundaries are Suffolk County Offices including Police HQ, D.P.W. HQ, Board of Elections and others. In the last few years, many new homes have been built, mostly larger houses on over-sized properties. Main street runs parallel to the Carmans River, which was declared by NY State as a "wild and scenic river" , and is open to boaters at a public access ramp on the lower lake that is state maintained. Close to the Long Island Expressway, I495, shopping is available within a 5-18 mile radius including Tanger outlets in Riverhead, Smith Haven Mall in Lake Grove, and many stores in nearby Medford, Shirley, and Patchogue. Although property taxes are high, like most of Long Island, school districts are very well rated, and town services are mostly very good. Limited night life might make it less desirable for singles, but the Hamptons are about a 30 minute drive southeast. Some rentals are available, but most homes and townhouses are privately owned."
