Winding suburban streets next to Long Island
Little Neck is a small, pizza-slice shaped neighborhood on the northeast edge of Queens near Long Island. Its primarily residential streets create a slow-paced atmosphere that’s occasionally broken up by crossing thoroughfares with businesses and public buses, plus a Long Island Rail Road train that reaches Manhattan in just over 30 minutes. “You have access to all the shopping on Northern Boulevard and the parks as if you lived in a city. And it’s a very walkable city,” says Gio Mangano, a resident and real estate agent with over 15 years of experience. “But when you come home, you have that suburban retreat. We’re as suburban as you can get in Queens.”
Little Neck is a serene haven, offering tranquility in the midst of the bustling city.
Little Neck combines the unique benefits of suburban and urban living to create a peaceful community.

Well-maintained colonials and new construction trends
The northern half of Little Neck, above the Long Island Expressway, has a mix of colonials and new traditional-style houses, along with eye-catching Mediterranean Revival estates. Houses in the southern half are a little boxier and less grandiose, and across these styles, prices range from around $800,000 to over $1.6 million. According to Mangano, new construction on oversized lots is a growing trend. “The small ranches on 50-by-100 lots are really desirable,” she says. “They’ll sell for $800,000, and contractors will level them and start from scratch.” Brick multifamily houses throughout the neighborhood start around $1 million and go up to $1.8 million. On the south side, Deepdale Gardens is a 60-acre co-op complex with nearly 1,400 units across about 100 buildings. Prices for these, as well as units in a pair of mid-rise co-op buildings on the east side, range from $200,000 to $400,000.
Little Neck is known for its multi-level Colonial homes with column-lined or arched entryways.
Little Neck offers a charming suburban vibe with tree-lined streets and tight-knit community.

Alley Pond Park is within walking distance
A few playgrounds within Little Neck give parents places to bring their kids, and Udalls Cove at the northern tip is great for birdwatching on Little Neck Bay. A short walk west, 635-acre Alley Pond Park has hiking and biking paths, barbecue areas and the Queens Giant, a 350-year-old tulip tree. The park also has a driving range, and residents can hit the links at the three full-size golf courses south of Little Neck.
Very close to Little Neck lies Alley Pond Park which is a great spot for relaxation.
You can find plenty of very peaceful views in Udalls Cove Park Reserve.

Businesses in Little Neck congregate along Northern Boulevard, the northernmost thoroughfare cutting across the neighborhood.

I always feel safe in Little Neck/ Douglaston area. There are mainly cops around to give out speeding or parking tickets. There is no crime around generally.
