Quiet streets and city access

A small residential area consisting of primarily attached single-family homes, Middle Village offers relative calm in New York City. That’s in part because green spaces, in the form of a central park and two cemeteries, make up a significant percentage of the neighborhood. This tranquility and a tight-knit community draws people to the neighborhood. “I like the fact that if you go to the supermarket, people know your name and they’ll say ‘Hi,’” says Andrew LaSala, a real estate agent at Crifasi Real Estate and a resident of the neighborhood himself for more than 25 years. It’s a place families stay for generations. Case in point: LaSala’s son goes to school where his wife did, and his science teacher was hers.

A large park with extensive facilities

In many ways, Juniper Valley Park is the heart of this community. The nearly 56-acre park is one of the most well-known and beloved parks in all of Queens. Residents take their children to play on the playground and go to enjoy its nearly endless array of sports areas, including fields for baseball, soccer and football, a running track, hockey rink and courts where residents can play tennis, basketball and handball. Community events are often held at the park, including a summer concert series on Tuesdays in July and August. The park, which recently received a new track, is a major draw. “Come summertime, I wouldn’t give it up for the world,” he says.

Middle Village is a nice area that is close to a beautiful, large park. It is also close to some good malls (Atlas, Rego Park). It's a sunny and quiet neighborhood. There are many pet owners that walk their dogs.

It is a nice and quiet neighborhood with a walking distance to a busy and charming strip of stores and markets. The neighbors are nice and friendly. It is in the middle of everything so driving distances are very short and you can get anywhere quickly.

The main thing that I appreciate about Middle Village is the sense of comfort/safety that is felt in the neighborhood. It isn't the most unified or close-knit community, but the people are nice enough to maintain a pleasant environment. I am very content with the community and my place in it, which is all I can ask for in a home. In terms of changes. there aren't any that immediately come to my mind. I don't think that any substantial changes need to be made in the area in order to improve it. If anything, only very minor changes are necessary down the line in order to ensure that the community keeps functioning as efficiently/pleasantly as possible.
