Long Beach? Fits all most of your your criteria..but the train commute is probably the same as Huntington unless you take the Atlantic Bridge to five towns. They dont have a jogging train but the boardwalk should suffice.

She wont have a car so atl bridge isn't an option. And yes the train ride is an hour.
IMO, for a single, she is too old for the LB scene. I'm single in the sense that I'm not married...and I'm 29 and outgrew the LB scene 3 years ago.
Thank you all for all of the responses! It looks like Great Neck it is then - although I will def check out the Bay Terrace area of Bayside, I hadn't been there.

Veronica95: if you have not chosen a place yet...great neck plaza is the best choice! i have been in the same situation, looked at all the nice areas in & around li & queens....and in the end, great neck plaza was the top pick..30 minute train ride to manhattan, village with shops, restaurants, parks, can walk & run everywhere, very clean & safe, lots of trees & grass, no car needed, good mix of age groups young younger..if you are still looking, i'm renting my studio apt now & it's a 5 minute run to everything, literally.
