Staten Island

Staten Island is the most geographically remote and least populated of all areas of New York. Due to this, it does not look like the rest of the city. There are many single- and two-story houses and green courtyards, and practically every family has a car, because the nearest store, pharmacy or school can be several kilometers away.
