Franklin Square: Be there or be Square 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 14, 2018) In my lifetime I have mostly lived in a lot of southern cities and towns. The charm of those places are great and as I got older I started looking for that same charm up north. Well, I definitely found it in the city of Franklin Square, New York.

Franklin square is a city that ...Read More once I moved their I didn’t really want to move away from. The people and culture here are a marvel to behold. Everyone is scurrying about attending to their business and they all look so cool and important. The thing that makes this city so great though are its fun activities and great places to hangout. there are so many things to do here racing, the challenge room, and the art galleries are a few things that I enjoyed doing all the time while living there. The food and nightlife are also very fun and engaging. The restaurants in this city have a place for many different cultural foods and flavors. They have Mediterranean, Italian, and Greek foods that are so delicious.

Franklin Square is a city in New York, but its feeling reminded me of the south in certain regards. I loved living here. I think it’s the best place for a young person looking to expand their horizons. Read Less
