Does LI have Polish enclaves, or any other group besides the usual Jewish, Italian, Irish, Euro Mutts?

In Bergen County NJ we have polish enclaves of Wallington, Garfield, Elmwood Park kind of. I can find polish restaurants there.

Even in Queens we have Ridgewood. There is a number of polish delis there.

What about Long Island? Is all Italians?

Copaigue-Kabanos Deli. Best kielbasa and golabki. If heavy garlic is your preference Riverhead has a couple good polish delis.

Copiague and Riverhead have Polish areas.
Hicksville and Dix Hills have Indians.
Great Neck has Asians.
The rest is either Italian or Jewish, or a mix. Sometimes literally.
Aside from the east end which doesn't count as part of LI. Because.
It's like Queens, might be physically a part of LI, it's not part of LI.
And goddam do I hate autocorrect sometimes.

Copiague isn't too far. It's just up the road from Amityville which is next to Massapequa making Copiague barely into Suffolk County.

Unfortunately Long Island, like boroughs, is becoming less European American, including Polish. Even Copaigue and Riverhead became less Polish.

You asked for enclaves you didn't specify a certain distance.
