Thank You.
What are you looking for? A studio? One bedroom?
You might be able to find a studio for $1200 in Port Washington but certainly not in a complex, it will likely be an apartment in a private home or above a store.
Here are the classified listings from the Port Washington News: Anton Classifieds • Real Estate (http://www.antonnews.com/classifieds/realestate.html - broken link)

For those who may not be familiar with Port Washington
san3297, Port Washington can be very geographically confusing because Port Washington is one of those many villages and hamlets on Long Island where the majority of the places with the community name as part of their mailing address (6,652 acres) are not in the hamlet (2,732 acres).
For those who may not be familiar with Port Washington:
Port Washington is a hamlet (an unincorporated area) in the northeast part of the Town of North Hempstead, in the northwest part of Nassau County.
Beginning on the north and moving in a clockwise direction, the Hamlet of Port Washington in the Town of North Hempstead is bordered on the north by the Village of Baxter Estates, the Village of Port Washington North and the Village of Sands Point; on the east by Hempstead Harbor; on the south by the Village of Flower Hill; and, on the west by the Village of Plandome Manor and Manhasset Bay.
Places that have a "Port Washington, NY 11050" mailing address that are not in the Hamlet of Port Washington are in the Village of Sands Point, the Village of Port Washington North, the Village of Manorhaven, the Village of Baxter Estates and the Village of Flower Hill.
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
san3297, oftentimes, the MLSLI.com, and other online lists, lists a place's location by the community named in that place's mailing address, which is, more often than not, different from the city, village or hamlet where that place is actually located.
You can find out in which community (city, village or CDP) a place is actually located, which is oftentimes different from the community named in that place's mailing address, by using the Census Bureau's online address search function. (CDP or Census Designated Place is the Census Bureau equivalent for a hamlet in Nassau and Suffolk Counties.)
I am looking for a single bedroom apt for my family. I can travel for an hour from port washington using public transportation, but looking for community kind of apartments usually found in edison new jersey. I dont like private houses or complex kind.Can anyone suggest me any.

What do you mean by "community" apartments and how is that different from an apartment complex?
If you are looking for newer build apartment communities with amenities such as pools, rec rooms and playgrounds you are not going to find them in Nassau County, especially at that price level. I think some areas further out in Suffolk may have some of those types of arrangements, but they will likely be more than one hour out from Port Washington.
Long Island offers a horrendous quality of life if you don't have a sizable income. If you have a family and a fairly limited income(by Long Island standards) you may want to think twice before moving here.
I am not sure what you mean by community apartments either but I think a lot of the rentals in Port Washington are in private homes. You might want to consider areas on the same train line as Port Washington such as Aubondale, Bayside, Little Neck. They would only be a 15 minute or so commute by train to Port Washington.
How far does commute time take place from port washington to Rockaway Ny. I found it to be like 25 miles from port washington and have some good apartments. Just concerned about commute time it may take during peak hours. I am looking at Wavercrest gardens apts at 20-10 Seagirt Blvd. Far Rockaway, NY 11691 .Can anyone let me know how travel on daily basis in terms of travel and time between these two routes look like?

Depending on traffic, anywhere between 45-90 minutes....maybe even a little more.
Far Rockaway is also (arguably) the worst neighborhood in New York City not located in The Bronx, so you might want to consider that. Since you know Albany, think Arbor Hill or South End but with way more murders. If you go further west on the Rockaway Peninsula, there are nicer communities but your commute would just be ridiculous at that point. The whole place is very isolated from everything.
I'm also pretty sure those particular buildings you're looking at used to be NYCHA public housing projects LOL. You're not really gonna find mid-rise apartments like that too many places in Nassau - the only ones that come to mind are in Great Neck, Long Beach, Glen Cove and Hempstead. The first three are a little out of your price range, the last one is like Far Rockaway but not near the beach.
Looking along the LIRR line through Queens is a good idea, as someone else mentioned. Flushing and Bayside both have tons of apartments.
Port North - There aren't any garden apartment 1BRs in Port Washington for $1250?
