Rent vs buy in Hampton Bays -what makes sense?
The unemployment rate is 2.5%, which is pretty low. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Worth the trade-offs?

Used to live on the Eastside side, now on the Fairview side. Completely different vibe. it's exactly what I was looking for.

I've lived in Pine Hills for about 1 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I love the pace of life here. When I first moved here from Denver, I was surprised by walkability. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Friendly community, easy to meet people
- The dating scene scene is excellent
The downsides:
- Nightlife is limited
- Not very walkable outside downtown
Overall I'd rate it 5/10 for couples. Definitely worth checking out..

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is weather. it was the best decision I ever made. Worth doing your research before committing.

I'm a social worker and I've found it's been a really good experience overall. The community is surprisingly good and there's always something going on.

Public transit is tough here. You'll probably need a car for most things. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem solid.
I've been here 2 years and it's not perfect but it works for me. The thing nobody mentions is dating scene. It's pricey and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the housing market is legit. And if you're into running, this place is challenging.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Old Town side vs the Greenfield side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
Would recommend to anyone considering it..
