East of Port Jefferson it becomes less developed. Ditto with Patchogue. Regular train service ends (the whole line for Port Jeff, and sparse for east of Patchogue) So, 112 is a good dividing line.

It's becoming increasingly more developed east of 112 along 25A.

In terms of a dividing line, I agree with 112.

Riverhead, and Not Tanger, but the far side where Kinney Chevrolet used to be. On the South Fork its The Shinecock Inlet, by the old Doubling Over club. Final and most correct answer.

Good point
West of the Canal was always the Bonacker Up Island line.

Eastern Queens ends around Great Neck - Roslyn to me. Some nice areas there, but it's not the same suburbia feeling. Generally speaking, I just don't think brick as siding makes a suburban home.

I'm sure it's different to those out in BFE with all your cows and open fields. See how that works?
