I have realized that there seems to be an excessive number of places on Long Island that are called a "neck." Are there really that many "necks" on Long Island? Do other places use the term "neck" as much as Long Island? Most of these "neck" places can be categorized by just about any land formation, I don't see why they are all "necks."
I composed a list of "neck" locations:
Great Neck
Little Neck
Throg's Neck
Jessup's Neck
Cove Neck
Pine Neck
Pipe's Neck
Great Hog's Neck
Eaton's Neck
They actually aren't. Geographically speaking, a neck is synonymous with an isthmus (a strip of land that connects to larger bodies of land). I just find it humorous how LI calls just about everything a neck

You should move to Head of the Neck Road in Bellport.
So if there was the same restaurant in each of these locations: Pinewood Hills, Pinewood Neck, and Pinewood Station, which would you go to?
