Hi I live in a one bedroom duplex here and I love it. Maybe because I know how much a duplex is in other areas in other good areas of Queens, and have rented alot of other apartments. So here is the deal. Young professional couple or single person, whom either doesnt like living or more likely cant afford Manhattan prices, or works in Long Island but does not want to live there. Where can you live where you can still have decent commute, still have trees and parks, and be in a middle class safe neighborhood, schools are good as well? You do not want or cant afford to buy a home right now so what do you do? This is a great location because it stilll close, but not so close that you have to give your whole salary to rent. It is a huge complex they have other 5000 units I believe. And all different types to serve your needs. With the duplexes you can have your own yard. Your own yard!! In Queens and you can do whatever you want with it. You dont have an annoying landlord saying you cant grill, put up a deck, or landscape how you choose. The amount of space in each apartment is impressive, the windows are large, heating and gas included and is great, electric is low they have their own electricity, the wood floors are nice, kitchens with good storage and dishwashers, The main problem the way I see it is the no so much the management( I mean there is a significant background check/credit reports as to weed out bad renters and rude people. The problem to me is the weeds, the annoying rude renters that ruin it for the rest of us. so people that live here. I talk to alot of my neighbors I have made some friends even. There are some that have been here for over twenty years, and have really made it there home. They are clean, quiet, take care of their apartments, hard working families and individuals. For them I feel sad for. Why? Because when you live in a nice, clean quiet place for years with others that were raised with enough integrity to not leave their garbage on the floor, to not carry on and be noisy and have drunk parties. Bottom Line I love living here because I have realstic expectations. It is not all of the managements fault if our neighbors are low class and rude. It has the capability to be have all five stars, but it is what you make of it. I really find it interesting because on one hand we want to enjoy the freedom to paint, decorate, have roomate, pets, but the other hand we are like you need to solve the problem and get rid of the noise and garbage and uncoothe people. Hmm sounds little similar to our present political problems if you ask me!
