I really resent that...obviously you have never been here. I just had a week vacation so I decided that I would do a lot of mountain biking around my area to really check it out.
In the last 5 days I have ridden to smiths point where it is absolutely beautiful.
I rode to William Floyd estates, also beautiful...
rode all around Mastic Beach, probably down every little road within a 5 mile radius of my house and didnt see any garbage, any more crime than you would have in any other neighborhood (a little graffiti etc)
It's definitely not a slum.
I had reservations about moving here in the first place because of the obvious reputation, thankfully carried on the shoulders of people like yourself.
I grew up in Huntington bay and then when I went out on my own lived in Northport village.
Northport was probably the nicest place I ever lived to be honest, Everyone was friendly, nice village...close to a parkway...boating etc.
I loved it there but couldn't afford a house.
If you want to know the truth I would take Mastic Beach over Huntington or Huntington station any day of the week
Huntington bay was nice but there were more drugs there than anywhere else I had ever lived before.
dont bother telling me that its not true either
I helped the Huntington Bay Police in conjunction with SCPD to uncover the largest drug ring in suffolk county at the time lead by Ray Keisen who worked out of a house on Flower Hill road in Huntington bay and had dealers all over huntington including Bay Hills.
The house on Flower Hill road was in his parents name because he wasnt claiming taxes.
125 person brawl at panch villa in huntington village on cinco de mayo
1 person stabbed
they are asking town hall employees to move town hall to the elementary school and move the school to town hall because of gang activity
People can say what they want about my area
its nicer and safer here than it is in a lot of places I used to think highly of
the people in Bay Hills loved huntington bay...even though it was crime and drug infested, they covered it up like it was Jimmy Hoffas body.
People will do anything to believe that they're area is the best.
blind I tell you.
