Anyone familiar with Birchwood on the Green in Oakdale? (Islip: co-op, zip code)

[NYTiz]

Can anyone give me any feedback on this co-op community? I know Oakdale is a nice area but it looks like this community may be close to the railroad tracks? Being that Oakdale doesn't have a downtown area, how close is the town of Sayville? Any advice would be appreciated!!

NYTiz, the Hamlet of Sayville is to the immediate east of the Hamlet of Oakdale.


For those who may not be familiar with Oakdale:

Oakdale is a hamlet (an unincorporated area) in the southeast part of the Town of Islip, in the southwest part of Suffolk County.

Beginning on the north and moving in a clockwise direction, the Hamlet of Oakdale in the Town of Islip is bordered on the north by the Hamlet of Bohemia; on the east by the Hamlet of Sayville and the Hamlet of West Sayville; on the south by the Great South Bay; and, on the west by the Hamlet of Great River.





The Hamlet of Oakdale has a different border than does the "Oakdale, NY 11769" ZIP Code postal zone (i.e., a place can have an "Oakdale, NY 11769" mailing address and not be in the Hamlet of Oakdale): places that have a "Oakdale, NY 11769" mailing address that are not in the Hamlet of Oakdale are in the Hamlet of West Sayville and the Hamlet of Great River.
