11 Best Places to Live in New York
8) Malverne
Malverne is a village town in Nassau County, Long Island, with a population of over 8,500 residents. It is a great place to live for people who want the everyday feel of a small town while still being close to a big city. There are many activities offered to residents and a quaint town center, as well as a movie theatre and a preserved farm. As expected on Long Island, median home prices are higher than the state’s overall average, at $439,200. However, median household income is also higher than average, at $114,497. The residents are well educated, with 95% having graduated high school and almost half having at least a Bachelor’s degree. Many residents tend to be of retirement age, although there are other age groups present as well. And since NYC is less than half an hour away, occasional breaks from the closeness of village-style life are within easy reach.
