List of Queens neighborhoods

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of neighborhoods in Queens, one of five boroughs of New York City.

Unlike neighborhoods in the other four boroughs, some Queens neighborhood names are used as the town name in postal addresses. For example, whereas the town, state construction for all addresses in Manhattan is New York, NY, residents of College Point would use the construction College Point, NY instead of Queens, NY.

Note: From the time the ZIP code was introduced in the 1960's to 1998, the postal zones of Queens were organized into 4 "cities" according to the database of the United States Postal Service. This grouping tended to minimize the identity of neighborhoods. As the urging of the citizens of Queens and with the support of Congressman Gary Ackerman they were eliminated. [1][2]

For historical purposes, the first three digits were 111 for Long Island City, 113 for Flushing, 114 Jamaica, 116 Far Rockaway (112 is Brooklyn, 115 is Western Nassau) USPS 3-Digit Reference
