[@kevinmassetti]

Whoohoo shout out to Walt Whitman HS! Nice video, but would have loved if the background music came in and out, rather than just playing throughout. Keep going to represent Long Island because not many KZbinrs covering this area!

[@Tidewater_paddler]

[@cornelsmithrealestate]

1:54 I live in suffolk county. Great place. Ronkonkoma has a lake that I don’t recommend going to but its biggest in the island. Every year 1 man dies in that lake, my mom’s friend died there once. The Hampton and pat house are nice and rich, smith point to the Long Island Sound, but the cons. Yes yes, the cons. Long Island is known for its tales, stories, both true and fake. The lady of the lake ronkonkoma, the Brookhaven labs, and the montauk project. The montauk project is literally stranger things, it sparked the idea of it. There were physics, the radios were buggy, there was a lab with a gigantic antenna, but there were no upside down. Sometimes you have to use your imagination. Overall, Long Island is a 8.5 out of ten. I recommend it but just know what you’re doing.

Dowling college has been closed down for over 7 years you might want to change that!

[@cornelsmithrealestate]

Thank you lol. Didn’t know.

[@Eurospec73]

@@cornelsmithrealestate Your welcome I guess you’re not from Long Island, it was actually 7 years ago back in August 2016.

[@cornelsmithrealestate]

Thanks again lol. You’re right. I’m from Queens, by the Queens/Nassau border.

[@Eurospec73]

@@cornelsmithrealestate Okay thanks for confirming that.

DON'T CANCEL YOUR CAR INSURANCE BEFORE MOVING!!!! Even a single day of no insurance will be considered a lapse in coverage. Only a couple companies will insure you, and IF they do, you will be paying over $1000 a month for insurance. It makes no sense, but it is what it is. I sold my car, canceled the insurance, and moved cross country, bought a car, aaaaand had to create a miracle in order to get affordable insurance.

[@cornelsmithrealestate]

Can’t really say. Never been to Boulder, CO. I might be a bit biased lol but NYC and Long Island>>>>>. Can’t lie tho; New York isn’t cheap…

[@konstantinkennedy2244]

Wow, you can definitely read

[@bangstar_media]

He is reading something written by a real estate agency, this is not the Real Suffolk! Been here 43years.

[@cornelsmithrealestate]

I respect that. Curious what part of Suffolk are you from? What would you have liked me to put in the video?

[@bangstar_media]

@@cornelsmithrealestate I grew up on the East End and have lived all over the island. The Crime, High Prices, High Taxes, high vehicle insurance. I have since watched a few videos like this and it seems like none of You are really from Long Island and only mention the good things. And also the fact that Brooklyn and Queens are deff on Long Island. Nobody pays a toll for a bridge or tunnel to get from Nassau or Suffolk to get to Queens or Brooklyn. I would deff like to see someone who is in real estate to tell the truth about this place and not just trying to sell houses and get more people to move here because when they get here and face the reality, Im sure folks like You are Long gone.

[@cornelsmithrealestate]

I respect that

[@johnkovary5121]

Long Island is an ATM machine for New York State. And the aquifer is In crisis. Don't forget those three headed cows on plum island.

[@cornelsmithrealestate]

Yes indeed about it being an ATM lol. Elaborate on the 3 headed cows 🐮?

[@rty1955]

Forgot to mention 1 HUGE statistic - CRIME You also forgot to mention JOBS on Long Island. People are fleeing Long island due to rise in crime, and lack of JOBS, after Gruman. fairchild & Unisys left, there arent really good jobs on long ispand, and working in NYC is terrible (long commutes & safety)

[@cornelsmithrealestate]

Can’t deny that there are some/many people leaving Long Island. Crime on Long Island does occur, though it isn’t as bad as a lot of places… or extremely crime ridden.

[@Joe-rg4dn]

Long Island crime rate is one of the lowest in New York state stop spreading lies

[@unsignedmusic]

As soon as you said “in” Long Island, I turned it off.

[@cornelsmithrealestate]

Damn sorry lol. Just replace with the “I” with an “o”

[@jameskarras6115]

Long Island is one of the most racist parts of the country...

[@cornelsmithrealestate]

I did mention the Long Island Divided expose’… a study/report about housing discrimination in Long Island. Long Island does lack diversity in some (some may say a lot of areas). There are also pockets/places on Long Island that are diverse/multicultural

[@Joe-rg4dn]

The sky doesn't know anything about Long Island I lived there all my life this is a crock of shit

[@cornelsmithrealestate]

💡

[@chuckiea7011]

No it's not. Racism in Long Island is nowhere near the Southern States.
