I'm buying a motorcycle from a guy in Great Neck this weekend so I was just there a few days ago. IMO, Great Neck is one of those Nassau towns that certainly is desirable. I'm a Suffolk dude so it's too rich for my blood!
That said, I find it very unlikely anyone in Great Neck mows their own lawn.

Triumph. Close enough.

I'm giving you positive rep for your knowledge of proper motorcycle demographics.

Just want to add Southampton has been whining about the immigrants too. They don't cut their own grass either!

Hang out around the Great Neck LIRR station, lately there are illegals loitering all over. No one is safe from the invasion. This is what happens when you hire illegals, they move to close to your landscape!

Interesting how you can tell someone is illegal just by looking at them.....

I like the tone of this thread. OF ALL PLACES? Like Great neck is supposed to have a protective dome over it or something.

Yes.. I expected places like great neck to be insulated from some problems because of wealth, great schools etc. Especially in north near Steamboat road was what surprised me.

The news did not mention anything about illegal immigrants.. it was about illegal housing. What concerns me more are points about drugs, 20 people living in one house etc.

GN train station is a busy station with all kinds of people, so just because you see people of certain race/national origin does not mean that they are illegals.

What concerns you concerns many in other areas as well.
