My wife and I (no kids) are planning to move to Long Island eventually, and we were wondering if anyone had some advice for our situation. My wife will be commuting to Long Island Jewish Medical Center in New Hyde Park by car. I will be commuting to Manhattan by public transportation. Because we don't know the area and may only be staying for a couple of years, we prefer renting to buying, but feel free to offer your opinion.
My initial question is simply what areas we should consider that would (1) give both of us a reasonable commute, (2) are safe, and (3) have convenient access to food and restaurants.
My second question is more specific. We were wondering if anyone knew of a rental with some or all of following criteria:
(1) One bedroom
(2) Washer/dryer in unit
(3) Parking
(4) Walking distance to subway
Any price range is fine; I would like to get a feel for what's available.
