You've likely heard the sounds of Williston Park, NY, and not even realized it. The small area is the hometown of famed composer Stephen Schwartz, who is the man behind the music of Wicked and the 1995 movie Pocahontas.
An oasis amidst the hustle and bustle of the greater metropolitan New York area perfectly describes Williston Park. Situated near the Long Island Sound, the town has access to the luxurious resort life on the eastern end of Long Island and the world-class cuisine, music, theater, art museums, nightclubs, architecture and shopping of Manhattan. The nearly 8,000 residents enjoy a peaceful quality of life with suburban amenities that have a touch of refined elegance. The Village of Williston Park encompasses less than one square mile, and, although primarily a residential town, it has two business districts along Hillside and Willis Avenues, where nearly 300 retail stores, enterprises and professional offices are located.

Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Williston Park renters. They`re typically a beautiful addition to your space. They’re also easier to clean and sweep, particularly if you have pets.
However, there are some downsides. Hardwood floors carry sounds. They can also make your apartment noisy for your roommates and downstairs neighbors.
Ask the landlord or property manager about the hardwood floors before signing a lease. Are they actually hardwood or a popular composite alternative? The latter is probably easier to clean and care for than the real thing.
It’s also important to ask about who’s responsible for any damage to the floors and what that entails. Your security deposit could take a hit from scratches, dents, and other damage.
Consider the type of climate you live in. Hardwood floors typically don’t fare well in damp climates full of moisture. Stains and buckling are common in hardwood floors after rain flooding or excessive moisture.
However, hardwood floors can be ideal for dry climates or sunny areas for renters who love the way they look.
