About Woodbury
Woodbury, 34 miles from New York City, has everything from shopping to transportation. The residential and commercial area is located within the Town of Oyster Bay and beside Syosset. “My biggest thing is they’re very beautiful neighborhoods, but they’re convenient to get to where you need to go,” says Frances Mazer, an associate broker and the founding agent of the Woodbury office for Compass Real Estate who has lived in the neighborhood for over 40 years. “The shopping is great, and if you need a mall or just want an independent store, you could be there in five or 10 minutes. The accessibility is wonderful.” Woodbury’s location is a big draw for the area, and the community has access to major roadways and public transportation. The area is also known for its highly-rated school district. The neighborhood is served by the Syosset Central School District, which has an A-plus rating on Niche, as does every school in the district. The CAP Index crime score is a 2 out of 10. The national average is 4.
