Anyone else feel this way? It's a a smaller city city with about 33,283 people. You can expect to pay around $1,867 for rent here. The unemployment rate is 3.4%, which is pretty low. Average temperature is around 53--F, so expect cold winters. Household incomes average around $129,121 in Huntington Station. Property taxes are high but you get good services. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The suburbs are where most families end up. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

Pros:
- Nice parks and trails
- Good schools
- Low taxes
- Strong sense of community

Cons:
- Limited nightlife
- Sprawl everywhere
- Limited dining options
- Homelessness issues downtown
- Not enough green space
There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The food scene here is surprisingly good. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The suburbs are where most families end up. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.
