"The next stop is Valley Stream"…read more... .....Says the conductor on the LIRR....and I get excited, calm, pensive, happy all at the same time. I'm home. I've attempted this review several times. I actually started writing it two years ago **insert shame face** I left it alone because I felt at that time I was not informed enough to write a review on The Village Of Valley Stream. Fast forward two years plus, I've come to love the Village of Valley Stream the way a great parent loves a stepchild. Geographically I feel as if I'm in certain parts of the UK. A few times I feel as if I'm home in Trini. Did I mention I really love Valley Stream? Maybe my personality meshes well with many of its inhabitants. My family who has lived here for over 20 years are sometimes taken aback when we go places here and I'm called by name or I break into conversation with folks. "Hey did you get that knee checked out?" ....and such. I have my old lady gang that I sometimes walk with. I have my young boy crew at the 7 eleven (who actually gets really concerned if they don't see me for a few days) and I have my laundry buddies. (On Thursdays we wear green lol). I also have spots I would suggest (read demand) I have first dates at because I know the staff at these places would HAVE MY BACK....sometimes my front. I've made good friends with barstaff at some of the local night spots and Oh lorsh Ms. Mindy who knows everyone's business keeps me in the know! Same reason I don't tell her my business lol. So many of its little nuances reminds me of my childhood home. What a quaint village. And like I said earlier, other times I feel as though I'm in the UK, The Village of Bishop Stortford to be exact. The main thoroughfares I know are Sunrise Highway and Rockaway. Merrick Road I'm very afraid of. Well not afraid in so much as I tremble when I pass a certain spot. I was hit by a drunk driver on a Friday afternoon at 3:01pm, while we pedestrians had the light. **shudders** Rockaway ave (not parkway) seems to be the main shopping area with Green Acres Mall not too far off. Nb, Rockaway is divided into two sides/areas. South being Rockaway Avenue and North as you cross Merrick Rd is Rockway Parkway (residential) -confusing to me at first. It isn't all peachy here but other than a few random A. Holes, Valley Stream has really become home to me. Oh! We have Pokémon spots too! Lol. l love Valley Stream. I know I'm not giving you an actual review of this village but I can only write what my heart feels. I really love my new home (for now). Valley Stream, you have been kind to me. I encourage you to come visit.....me Not quite The End

Now let me say that I deal with city town & village halls, up and down the east coast, almost on a daily basis. On this day the Village of Flower Field was holding an election, so I was concerned that cooperation by Village employees was going to be a problem. I was wrong. These ladies were very accommodating, pulling all the records I needed and being extremely helpful. At one point a contractor came in and started berating the ladies. I though that we were about to have an issue but they kept on helping without missing a beat. Sometimes public employees get a bad rap and I can tell you some cities and towns where that applies, but not at the Village of Flower Field. These ladies are top notch. I can say confidently that if you need anything at this Village Hall you can count on full cooperation.

Baller shot caller see me on the N4 playing I don't know…read moreya. I'm a fan of Rockville Centre, big fan, huge. MY N4 bus passes through here on Merrick road which runs parallel to Sunrise highway. It's about two villages away from where I stay and I'm almost certain it's where it all goes down! With pubs, restaurants, lounges, fashion, grocery stores and coffee house on almost every square inch of every block you're sure to find what you need here in the RVC as it's fondly called. Hey it's a busy "village" with a LIT nightlife. Want more info? Check out IG and snapshot on a Friday evening. (Just wrote this review 6/Aug/2017 while passing through on the N4 bus, how sway) The End

Hello Yelp Family, Welcome to RVC (or) Rockville Centre, Long Island, NY. When folks across the…read moreworld think of Long Island, they picture Montauk Point's Beaches and movie stars, rural farmlands dotted with horses, apple orchards, roadside Farm stands, home-baked pies and fields painted orange by thousands of pumpkins. Well, folks that is NOT Rockville Centre. RVC is a large Metropolis, alive with business and commerce. But this Big Town has a small community feel. Many large companies have made their homes in Rockville Centre. The thousands of folk who work here need some good food and great places to relax. Rockville Centre has been exceptional at filling the dining and entertainment niche, there are just so many great places to enjoy and bring your family. Many small towns on Long Island just have one or two main streets that restaurants and nightlife will be situated. RVC is a paradise of night life and restaurants, with not just one Avenue but a myriad streets, where dozens of Night Clubs, Restaurants and Bars are alive and rocking. Some of my favorite places in Rockville Centre are Tum Thai, Frank's Steaks, Thai table, Foo Asian Bistro, Cabo. My list could go on for pages. I'm on a tear now discovering RVC. I'll be posting pictures and reviewing the neighborhoods venues. You'll see me in RVC. JIM D.

Honestly it was so difficult to rate it. After delaying for so long with construction it felt like…read moreputting 0 star will be a right decision, all this daily craziness you need to go thought driving from Long Island or Queens to Brooklyn especially when it's rains...Every time it rains it floods badly and highway get paralyzed. No movement what's so ever and it feels like all drivers without exception taking 15-20 min. nap. But giving 5 stars it's seams to be more appropriate. City decided to revise schedule because bridge designs was changed. So instead of starting in 2013 they started in 2015. This happened to be an extremely important project rebuilding bridges, that connect Brooklyn to Kennedy Airport. So let's just suck it up and stop constantly complaining about traffic.

I'm usually walking in there with little information however, they always seem to find the answers for me. The building is a brand new building and the Borough Office is located on the second floor.

They don't grow hemp here, which is fine with me. They might, but I'm blissfully unaware of it…read more In-Stead they have a lot of good food. Hofstra and Adelphi and other Universities are here or nearby. It's a very dense suburb and really an extension of NYC. In some ways it's the capital of Long Island, in other ways it's like a less intense Queens or a more dense Staten Island. My friend lives here and we've shared a lot of food here over the years. Long Island food is underrated and enjoyable but nothing compared to Queens. The police here are sometimes very aggressive and protective, but it's still a great place to explore. Hempstead has almost a million people living in it - yes, one million. It's the 2nd largest city in NY and top 20 in the whole USA, except for the fact that it's not technically a city. But that's just a technicality. This is probably why there is so much to explore, to eat, and why it feels so dense here.
