Default Understanding the geography of "Lawn Guyland"

liruins, here's a bit of a primer on the local geography that may be of some help to you in placing these LI Ruins in their correct city, village or hamlet:

What people refer to colloquially as "towns" are actually villages and hamlets, which are within actual towns; and, because villages and hamlets are referred to as "towns", then, many times, the error is compounded when actual towns are referred to as "townships".

Also, many colloquially refer to a "downtown business district" in a hamlet as a "village".

//www.city-data.com/forum/new-y...-glossary.html and //www.city-data.com/forum/long-...-resource.html may be of some help to you in understanding the geography of "Lawn Guyland".

//www.city-data.com/forum/long-...you-think.html may help you understand the great geographic confusions caused by non-conforming ZIP Code postal zones.

Yes LIO is a great site Lancet. My associate on Long Island Ruins and Remnants is the founder of LIO. We run li-ruins.com together.

Thanks for the info Walter many people on LI do confuse the names of hamlets with towns

forgottenli is great site too we know it well.

Does anybody know where I can get a picture of the map of LI mural that was (maybe still is) in the Long Island Savings Bank in Babylon Village. Heck, I wouldn't mind some pictures of that beautiful old interior.
