A convenient location and small-town vibe
For generations, Floral Park was home to field after field of flowers belonging to dozens of flower farms. The fields once spanned well over 200 acres. Although the floral farms are gone, the quaint village honors that history through its street names; its main street is dubbed Tulip Avenue, while side streets have names like Violet and Verbena. Its downtown is lined with brick and stone buildings, and residents often stroll its well-manicured streets. “There’s a nice main street with cozy cafes, restaurants and services, and it’s easily accessible to the Long Island Rail Road. Everything is right there,” says Jennifer Tucker, an agent at eXp Realty who has worked in the area for over 10 years. Floral Park sits right at the border of Queens, adding to that feeling that everything is right outside residents’ front doors — and yet its atmosphere is so different from the big city’s. “While it’s convenient to the city, it has a small-town feel and a large sense of community,” says David Pastorini, a licensed real estate salesperson at Coldwell Banker. A lifelong resident of Floral Park, he's stayed for the sense of community. “Everybody just really rallies around everybody in a way that I think is unusual in the hustle and bustle. We’re two minutes away from the Queens border, which is technically New York City, and we’re Nassau County. But the sense of community that we have in our village is very different from the communities even minutes away in Queens.”
Floral Park’s proximity to Queens and access to the LIRR means that many residents commute to work in Manhattan. Others work at nearby hospitals — there are four, including the Cohen Children’s Medical Center, within a 5-mile drive of Floral Park’s center. According to the U..S. Census Bureau, about 32% of Floral Park residents work in educational services, health care or social assistance, while about 14% work in professional, scientific, management, administrative or waste-management services and about 13% work in finance, insurance or real estate.

Restaurants and shops along Tulip Avenue, Jericho Turnpike
Tulip Avenue, often called Uptown by locals, features restaurants, cafés and bars with stone or brick facades. American fare is pretty standard here, but gyros and tacos are also available. The little downtown also offers essentials like salons, barber shops and professional offices. North on Jericho Turnpike, there’s another hub with restaurants featuring Asian cuisine much more prominently, as well as salons and other small businesses. In addition, Home Depot and Stop & Shop are nearby.

Yearly street fair and fundraisers for breast cancer research
According to Pastorini, the Floral Park Chamber of Commerce Street Fair & Festival usually coincides with the Belmont Stakes, a horse race that’s part of the Triple Crown. For the festival, Tulip Avenue is closed to cars so people can wander among the booths that vendors that set up. Liz’s Day is another big local event. “Liz is a village resident that had passed away from breast cancer,” Pastorini says. “They do a huge fundraiser that takes over the entire recreation center one day every year, and there’s everything from face painting to the beer truck, to volleyball tournaments, tennis tournaments — just an endless array of stuff goes on.” Proceeds go toward breast cancer research. Pastorini says the Memorial Day Parade is also well-attended, with free hot dogs and fruit punch afterward for participants.
Single-family homes on tree-lined streets
Floral Park’s residential streets are lined with tree-shaded sidewalks on both sides, adding to its quiet suburban vibe. Colonial homes are common, but there are also many homes with Tudor influences like timbering, stonework and cottages with A-frame roofs. Condos and co-ops are limited, but there are some condo buildings near the train station, such as Flowerview Gardens. The median home price is $715,000, which is higher than the national median of $416,700.
Floral Park is known for its quiet, peaceful atmosphere.

Hurricane season’s inland impacts, village police department
Hurricane season impacts Floral Park, much as it does the rest of the island. Its inland location, only a smidge closer to the North Shore than the South Shore, means that flooding is a minor concern here. There’s still a major risk of high winds.
While not all incorporated villages have their own police departments, Floral Park does. According to the department’s statistics, between 2022 and 2023, crime in Floral Park dropped by 25%. “It’s like calling a friend to come,” Pastorini says of the department. “I had a little fender-bender last week, and the Floral Park police were there in three minutes.”
Different A-rated districts for elementary and high school
The Floral Park-Bellerose Union Free School District has an A from Niche. It has just two schools, both of which teach pre-kindergarten through sixth grade. The Sewanhaka Central High School District, which also has an A, serves middle and high school students.

Floral Park Recreation Center and a volunteer-run garden
The Floral Park Recreation Center is among the village’s only recreational spaces, but it’s packed with athletic fields and courts. There’s also an indoor recreation building and a recently renovated outdoor pool complete with water slides and a snack bar. “It’s the type of community where you can trust that your kids can take their bikes or walk to the recreation center or the pool in the summer, and you know that nobody’s going to bother them,” Pastorini says. “You know that other parents are going to be there that they either know by face or because they know their kids, and that everybody will look out for everybody.” The recreation center often has volleyball leagues and winter fitness classes. The 12-acre Centennial Gardens is a volunteer-run, passive-recreation area and bird sanctuary with several gardens.

Major highways, LIRR to Penn or Grand Central stations
Jericho Turnpike runs through Floral Park, while state Route 25B and Cross Island Parkway are just a few minutes away. Many commuters — 14.2%, according to the Census — rely on public transportation to get to work. “You can walk to the Long Island Rail Road from anywhere in the village,” Pastorini says. From Floral Park Station, the train goes to both Penn Station and Grand Central Station; it reaches the former in 35 minutes and the latter in about 40 minutes. John F. Kennedy International Airport, which serves just under 200 destinations on six continents, is 9 miles away.
