My Neighborhood - Long Island, New York
Bayville
 

Bayville is typical of Nassau. Diligent local administration keeps the location advantage of the town in top shape and nature is shown in all her glory with minimal disturbance from human footprints. The Atlantic is almost always in view and no urban requirement is missing or deficient. Though Bayville scrupulously follows the Long Island template of a choice suburb of New York, it has not failed to assert itself and to declare its own personality.

Community life that permeates without intruding is the special feature of Bayville. The Bayville Community Baseball League, the Scouts movement, the St. Gertrude's Youth Basketball and the Oak Neck Athletics Council and the Locust Valley Soccer Club provide the town's children with opportunities for extra-curricular activities and to expand their network of friends.

The town's infrastructure is comprehensive. The Bayville Elementary is a significant education resource. Bayville has a Library. It moved to its present location only in 1956 but dates back to the beginning of the 20th century. It functioned informally for a number of years prior to being formally chartered. The town has 3 beaches and they are all reserved for residents. Bayville has a local Museum housed in a building of historic importance. The Museum is focused on local history and has interesting artifacts on Bayville history.

Bayville has about 15 restaurants with a variety of food preparation styles on offer. There is a wide choice for both casual and fine dining. The Breakers offers an exciting menu with special events and offers at regular intervals. This restaurant has an excellent bar as well and the splendid view of the Atlantic lingers long after the meal experience is over. The seafood, especially lobster, is particularly good and diners can always look forward to pleasing value when it is time for the tab. Steve's Pier One is another fine restaurant in Bayville. It has separate menus for lunch and dinner and one for Brunch as well. It has a carefully assembled wine inventory and caters for events as well.

About 7 thousand people live in an area of less than 2 square miles to constitute the town of Bayville. It beckons to others who would like to join in its superior lifestyle offer.
