Islip: Located on the South Shore of Long Island about 45 miles east of New York City, the city of Islip is rich in history and graced with an abundance of natural beauty. The city includes the communities of Islip Terrace, East Islip and West Islip. Islip and the South Shore are the heart of Long Island's major cultural and sporting centers. It is also a beach-lovers haven with miles of beautiful waterfront property along the Great South Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. Long Island is the largest island adjoining the continental United States, extending approximately 118 miles from the mouth of the Hudson River, adjacent to Manhattan Island. The South Shore stretches east from the New York City border at the bustling Belmont Park Racetrack to Patchogue, the eastern-most mainland town across the Great South Bay from Fire Island, the famed barrier island resort. Islip offers nine public beaches, 1,500 boat berths, pools, golf courses, parks, tennis, baseball and softball, a rifle and pistol range, a nature center, an art museum and The Islip MacArthur Airport. The New York Institute of Technology (HYIT) has a campus in Central Islip. The real estate market is made up almost exclusively of single-family homes. A select few condominiums and townhouses can be found beginning at around $140,000 and ranging up to $400,000. Single-family housing starts at just over $200,000 and runs up to $1 million or more for waterfront properties with views. Islip has all the amenities and conveniences of a large city but retains its high quality of life, values and sleepy beach town pleasures. MORE
