anyone out there who lives in forest hills? if so, do you like it? are you in a house or a n apt. thinking about leaving Manhattan in a year and FH seems like a good compromise between what I like about the city (museums/live music/walkable community/etc) and living in the 'burbs. Thoughts? TIA [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

FH was recently named one of the top communities in NYC for raising children. Move as close as possible to Forest Hills Gardens on the south side of Queens Blvd. Walk through there and you'd never think you're still in NYC. [ Reply | More ]

I live in Forest Hills Gardens in a 2 family townhouse. We LOVE it. It feels like you are living in a beautiful, lush green suburb. But in reality you are a 20 minute subway ride from midtown...or a $30 cab ride. Schools are great (elementary). Junior high is more questionable. Lots of families in the area. Austin street, the main shopping street, has anything you need within walking distance...fish store, gourmet/natural store, cheese shop, a few chain cloting stores, nysc, childrens dance studio, children's cooking school, music school, gymboree, etc etc. Museums are in the city for the most part, but there are some others that are w/in driving distance such as the science museum in flushing meadows park that is about a 7 minute drive.
