My sister and Brother in law live in NYC curently and are paying $1500 for a 1 BR apartment in a decent locality. They want to move to westchester county or Long island.
The factors for consideration are
1. rents in westchester
2. closest areas to LIRR/bus/train - also, commute time to manhattan should be about an hour

what localities can they look at? What rents to expect? if it is going to turn out to be costlier then ,they will prefer living in their current location(Queens,NY).

I am from Long Island (born and raised there) but after moving down south getting married and having 2 kids...then divorce and wanting to move back to NY I looked at both options. It all depends on the area of LI as well as any location. But if I went back to LI I wanted to go to where I grew up which just wasnt going to happen for me. I needed a 3 bedroom and any ones I saw started at 2700 a month. So I decided to look into Westchester. I had a friend here and he helped me find a place in a nice area w/ good schools and it was less $ than LI
