My Neighborhood - Long Island, New York
Baldwin
 

The 2000 Census for Baldwin should be ignored. The town is on the move and real estate is going fast. It is very different from the last time demographic data was collected and more rapid change is underway as you read this.

The prime mover behind this dramatic transformation is the Baldwin Chamber of Commerce. It does all the other things practiced by its peers-meetings and networking; it also has a website. However this Chamber is a cut above for it has some astounding and concrete achievements to its credit.

It started with the streets and the area around the Rail Road Station. The entire area was greened and cleaned and now has a spanking new look. Secondly, the Chamber commissioned a professional marketing firm to promote Baldwin as an investment destination. Not content with hype alone, the Chamber used another form of Consultants to draw up a Master Plan for the town. This document lays out a detailed template for Baldwin's future.

These moves have begun to show results. New technology industries have set up shop in Baldwin and word will spread that this is a town that no happening company can afford to miss. Take MEI Technology Consulting for example. This pride of Baldwin has set new standards in Internet Marketing with high uptime in web hosting, economical domain name registration and virus protection for email campaigns.

It is not technology alone. The new elegance of Baldwin's streets and downtown area has begun to permeate its stores. Artie's Corner is an example. Exquisite home furnishings and aids to interior decor grace the shelves of this unusual gift and decorative store. The lace curtains and wall paintings are particularly sensuous and worth a long drive to procure.

Baldwin's march to the future extends beyond the narrow confines of business and commerce. The Greater Nassau Chorus of Sweet Adelines International is an award winning group based in Baldwin. The Nassau Dance Center has a Youth Troupe, provides both tuition and performances and is an expressive outlet for people's creativity and talent. The New World Music Center helps people realize their full musical potential. It trains students to play instruments up to the semi professional level. It sells instruments, services them and provides related supplies as well. Pats Dance Studio teaches both classical ballet and popular dance routines. It specializes in making learning to dance fun, especially for children who may be skeptical at first.

The Baldwin School District seems to favor elementary education with a choice of 7 schools in this category. The town has Middle and a High School as well, so families can expect a stable education environment for their children. The Huntington Learning Center offers individual tuition for Baldwin children of all ages to help them prepare for School and with SAT tests as well. The Coes Neck Park has good facilities for sports and games. It acts as the lungs of the town and provides easy access for children to play and enjoy themselves in safe and green surroundings.

Baldwin has a large number of Delis and Diners for such a small resident population. There are also a good variety of Italian restaurants and some Asian places as well. The popular branded chains are represented as well. The Chamber of Commerce with a typically deft touch uses its monthly meetings to promote one of the town's restaurants by turn.
