Glen Oaks sits at the easternmost edge of Queens, where tree-lined streets and residential communities create a peaceful atmosphere away from the city's bustle. Located between the Grand Central Parkway and the Nassau County border, this neighborhood features garden-style cooperative apartments and the North Shore Towers complex. The area's notable elevation, formed by glacial activity, provides residents with sweeping views across the landscape.
The neighborhood offers established garden apartment communities, including Glen Oaks Village cooperative, which dates back to 1947. Transportation options include the Q36 and Q46 local buses and express bus service to Manhattan. Community amenities include the Queens County Farm Museum, Glen Oaks Library, and The Oval park, which features recreational facilities. The neighborhood is also home to District 26 public schools and provides convenient access to Long Island Jewish Medical Center.

Apartment Finder utilizes the industry's largest and most complete database of real-time rents and availabilities to help you find an amazing deal on your next rental.
Apartment communities change their rental rates often - sometimes multiple times a day. We track the changes and keep you up to date when a rental rate decreases.
"Best value" units are located in buildings rated three stars or higher. We label apartment rentals that are priced significantly less than similar high-quality units nearby.
Apartment communities regularly advertise deals for new residents. Whether it's a move-in special or a free tv, we locate the rentals that offer a little something extra when you sign your lease.
Note: Based on community-supplied data and independent market research. Subject to change without notice.
