The lifestyle in Hempstead · New York City · Nassau County
The lifestyle scene in Hempstead, New York.
Hempstead is the anchor village of Nassau County — a densely settled, diverse stretch of Long Island suburbs, where the parkways and the LIRR make Queens feel closer than most of Suffolk.

What the scene looks like here
Long Island has no on-premise club of its own, so Hempstead couples ride the rails: Caligula New York in Astoria is the closest real venue, with the Manhattan rooms — The Diamond Club, CheckMate, Labyrinth — one train farther. Plan the return; the LIRR runs late but not all night.
