Long Island is more than a place. It’s a state of mind.
One where you can change direction, without ever having to leave. That’s because Long Island boasts one of the most uncompromising lifestyles found on the East Coast.
Here, you can wake up in a charming coastal village and feel the pulse of the New York City street under your feet minutes later. Catch a breathtaking beach sunrise and a hit Broadway show—all in the same day. Spend the day discovering masterpieces in Manhattan museums and galleries or pass the hours touring Long Island wine country—the East Coast’s answer to Napa Valley.
Here, you can send your children to some of the nation’s highest ranked public schools or New York’s top-rated colleges and universities, knowing that suburban communities where they grow up are safe. You can choose to live where your backyard is big enough for a swimming pool, or select a neighborhood where friends gather at the community pool. And when it comes to health care, you can rest assured that Catholic Health is bringing its undeniable hallmark to a state highly ranked for access to care.
