Forest Hills New York Homes for Rent

Forest Hills offers a culturally and socially diverse neighborhood that encompasses the upscale enclave of Forest Hills Gardens.  Originally patterned after England's garden community models, Forest Hills Gardens has remained almost strictly residential.  Dense commercial districts and streets lined with six-story brick apartment buildings are common throughout the rest of the neighborhood.  Metropolitan Avenue showcases many fine antique shops, although the center of commerce is a mile-long stretch of Austin Street.  Generational families in Forest Hills are being joined by young professionals in increasing numbers who appreciate the cosmopolitan nature, plentiful shopping, great restaurants, and excellent access to public transportation.  Many airline pilots have settled into this area, which offers close proximity to JFK and La Guardia airports.
