Long Islander
Suffolk County denizen
A Long Islander is a person from Long Island, the densely populated island extending east from New York City.
The term often distinguishes residents of Nassau and Suffolk counties from those in the city proper, though Brooklyn and Queens technically occupy the island's western end.
Long Islanders are associated with distinctive accents and suburban culture: She's a Long Islander who moved to Manhattan.
