Nassau County ain't Long Island. It's high population density.... like 5,000 per square mile. 25% Italian. 15% Jewish. The median family income is around $100K. Queens-east. You'd never confuse it with Greenport or Montauk. Of course it's a different culture from New England. It's metro-NYC suburban flight just like north Jersey.

i really really see the differences from reading alpinezone....its almost like two different cultures....the folks in new england take a lot for granted....like proximity to ski holes:roll::roll:

And Long Island people take the beach for granted...

Using that logic - Newark ain't New Jersey.. :)

Since BB threads seem to be the place where stream of consciousness diarreha of thought are ok...

I must've gotten really spoiled living in Norcal! LI beaches have zero appeal. Maybe way out Montauk... only thing going for them is a reasonable water temp (for 3 months of the year).

Northern Beaches suck. I wont swim in the ocean north of Virginia, and then it depends on the temps. I dont enjoy freezing.

u think thats crowded??

Brownsville, Brooklyn extends from Ralph Avenue to Junius Street, between Liberty and Hegeman Avenues. With more than two hundred thousand people dwelling in its 2.19 square miles, it is the most densely populated district in Brooklyn.

E, not sure if you're aware but Brownsville is no longer a Jewish neighborhood

aware? i know more about brownsville brooklyn then u will know about any subject....IM a Learned Scholar in the discipline of Eastern European Jewry. Now crawl back to Bayport & play in the sand. I was born in Brooklyn & lived there for 12 years. You can't touch that!! Brooklyn becomes part of your DNA.:angry::angry::smash::smash:

Not sure where the anger's coming from, just made a simple statement... BTW, I don't live in Bayport and I don't understand the fascination you have with revealing your immense knowledge of other peoples backgrounds that you dug up in the web somewhere... sorta makes you look like a stalker IMHO...

when's the last time you visited brownsville?

you used anger smilies... were you aware of that?

I haven't lived in Bayport since the 80's. So its part of my background not my present. You and I both know you have a fascination with knowing as much info as possible about people... If you deny that then you're living in fantasyland. Its a hobby of yours, just like skiing/finance/jewish history etc.
