I am a nursing student trying to assess the needs of the Gordon Heights Community. Can you give me your opinion as to what you feel is your biggest concern living in Gordon Heights and if you feel that the issue is being addressed?

Any other insight you can provide would be most appreciated.

The biggest concern for Gordon Heights is most likely drugs, for at least 20 years I heard it is a drug haven!

The spread of AIDS due to IV drug use and sex with hookers can be added to the list.

I think Gordon Heights has come a real long way and has a lot to be proud of.

The Fire Dept is redundant in the wake of the Coram Taj Majal but I am sensitive to Coram and Long Islands racist past.

Default For those who may not be familiar with Gordon Heights

Please be aware that Gordon Heights is one of those many villages and hamlets on Long Island where none of the places in the community have the hamlet name in their mailing address.


For those who may not be familiar with Gordon Heights:

Gordon Heights is a hamlet (an unincorporated community) in the central part of the Town of Brookhaven, in the central part of Suffolk County.

Beginning on the north and moving in a clockwise direction, the Hamlet of Gordon Heights in the Town of Brookhaven is bordered on the north by the Hamlet of Coram and the Hamlet of Middle Island; on the east by the Hamlet of Middle Island; on the south by the Hamlet of Yaphank and the Hamlet of Medford; and, on the west by the Hamlet of Coram.





Gordon Heights is one of those many villages and hamlets on Long Island where none of the places in the community have the hamlet name in their mailing address: places in the Hamlet of Gordon Heights have a "Coram, NY 11727", "Middle Island, NY 11953" and "Medford, NY 11763" mailing address.


For a good set of town-by-town maps showing all the villages and hamlets in each of LI's 13 towns (3 in Nassau County and 10 in Suffolk County): Excellent Long Island Geographic Resource
