Island York
How far away is long island from new york?
I live in England and I'm going to New York next February. I wanted to meet up with one of my friends, but they said they'd be in long island? I'm confused. How long would it take to get there/are they close?
Thanks (:
My friend, Long Island is roughly any where between 60 to 120 miles (100 to 192km) from New York City. Depending on the town your friend, is living in, the trip from Penn Station to Long Island will take any where between an hour to 2 hours.
Please note, Long Island is a region in New York State consisting of four counties, 2 of which are borough and are part of Greater City of New York. The other two counties, Suffolk and Nassau Counties are independent counties and are not part of the Greater City of New York.
I hope this information is very helpful.
Good luck and happy holidays
