This is a place only to live 2.5 rating By Anonymous ( Jun 01, 2025) Roosevelt has some very nice houses with a great amount of property. however there are a great amount of downfall in this community. too many liquor stores, Bodegas, commercial businesses etc. also the school district can use quite a bit of improvements! right now they are workin ...Read More g on improving Centennial Park, which is great for the children, but in all honesty, it's just not a very friendly family community. transportation is not bad, however our young people, elderly and children could use some other incentives to uplift their spirits when entering in their communities, coming home from a stressful day at work,, rough day at their Dr's appointment and school. one need to feel that at least there is something Beautiful in their community Read Less
Living in Roosevelt, NY is NOT Recommended! 2 rating By Anonymous ( May 10, 2018) I have been living in Roosevelt for about 5 years now, and I will be moving away just as soon as I have enough money saved up to go! I'm sorry to say that there is nothing redeeming about this place. I try to find something positive in every situation but the bottom line is the p ...Read More eople who live here simply don't care about the environment they live in. The crime rate is high and getting higher. The schools have an alarmingly high drop out rate and low graduation rates. There are just no jobs to be found anywhere close by. The only things I can even remotely speak positively of are the weather and the housing market, which somehow seems to be doing well even in a place like this.

There are few things to do here by way of fun and entertainment. There's the Long Island Children's Museum in Garden City, which has interactive and hands-on activities and experiments for the kids to take part in. There's the Oyster Bay Oyster Festival every Saturday and Sunday throughout the season. Nightlife simply doesn't exist. Believe me, there are better places to live. Read Less
