I grew up in Roslyn Harbor and I never thought of Syosset as upper class at all. Very middle class, like Plainview & all with high ranches and modest homes (not terrible, but....) . We used to go to The Lollipop Farm there. I wonder where the trailer park is. That's kind of funny , but they should leave the residents of it alone.
No one thinks places like Syosset and Plainview are "upper class" except the people that live there.
Plainview is certainly just middle class as is most of Syosset, but both have pretensions to being upper class. Any place where the residents are worried about how they are perceived are almost always just middle class. The upper class never worry about such things (nor does the working class BTW) - they are confident in their class status and have no need to explain anything. I mean, could you imagine someone in Muttontown having to explain that they are really upper class?

no, because they would not care. And, more than likely they would not be reading this thread. Well, except for those people who owned slaves. Now, there is a weird story about the alleged upper (classless) class.
I think the Syosset story is very sad. Sure, the person who bought the land has the right to develop the land, but it's still taking away people's homes.
Hey don't talk about Brooklyn, there are many parts of Brooklyn that are nice
like Bay Ridge, Caroll Gardens
