I never said that everyone else needs to go that way. I said that anyone who lives in the Five Towns will go that way. Why is it so hard for you to understand that I grew up in Southwestern Nassau County, and that this was the only way that myself and anyone else coming from the Five Towns could get to Roosevelt Field Mall?

I have a question. How come you only deleted my message and not S.I.B.'s messages? This person has fought with several other people on this board and you have not deleted any of that person's messages. So what's this all about?

Just curious isn't it easier to get to Green Acres mall from 5 t AREA?

Yes Green Acres Mall is closer to the Five Towns than Roosevelt Field Mall is however, I've been to both malls many times. I'd recommend Roosevelt Field Mall over Green Acres Mall any day of the week based on the fact that there is nowhere near as many incidents in Roosevelt Field Mall as there is in Green Acres Mall. My aunt was mugged in the parking lot of Green Acres Mall 30 years ago, also one of the employees who worked in the mall was killed there on Black Friday 2008 because a bunch of people just trampled over the poor guy trying to get into the mall. There was also someone murdered in the movie theater that's across the street from the mall on Christmas 1990, which is why that movie theater set up metal detectors.

one mugging you're aware of in 30 years? I'll take those odds any day!

that wasn't in the mall. It was near the mall.

First a mugging 30 years ago and then a 23-year-old shooting? Do you avoid the LIRR because of Colin Ferguson? And did you hear there was a shooting near Roosevelt Field just 2 weeks ago! Maybe all the malls are dangerous! Thank God for Amazon!
I lived in RVC and can honestly say I found the people to be snobbish. My sister lives in East Williston and the people were much friendlier and many could buy and sell RVC. Hubby grew up in Garden City and he will tell you that the GC people were more snobby than the RVC people. Once again, the above comments are a broad generalization and are based upon our sampling which may well be different than you encounter.

Thanks! We are all over the place right now but..
I think that East Williston is undervalued. There are 2 houses in EW that would probably be worth $1.1/ $1.2+ in GC. plus one has taxes in the mid teens.
In terms of GC we go to kidville and have play dates at st. Pauls and it seems that GC has a bit more of a "community feel" to it and that may be reflected in the price.
RVC has these 2 HUGE colonials on Broadway that we saw which are walking distance to Watson elementary. We've also had our kid attend the CSTL camps at Tanglewood Preserve nearby which she adored. One thing that i did notice was that the crime reports here seemed to have a few more muggings and drug related issues than the other 2. however, on the surface, Broadway seemed to be rather nice and it was difficult for us to reconcile the reports to the beautiful part of the town,
