We all have our unique little things that separate our towns from each other. There are many obvious things we locals are so well known with, and we just know it's Deer Park.
1. We have all of the fast food places.
Aside from a few, pretty much all of the typical fast food places, such as McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Taco Bell, and recently Sonic, is all placed on the same road: Deer Park Ave. You can't go too far without seeing at least one fast food place.
2. So many pizza places.
Along with the fast food places, we literally have so many pizza places, you really can't miss any of them! They're almost on every corner along Deer Park Ave and other places as well.
3. No healthy fast food places.
Okay, we have Energy Fuel, but they are expensive! There is no actual healthy food place to stop in and actually get something fresh and healthy, other than smoothie and yogurt places. We should get on that, Deer Park...
4. Tanger Outlets.
Other than Riverhead, we're the only other town that has a Tanger Outlets, complete with stores and our own movie theater. Props to us.
5. Size.
Deer Park Ave is very long, but that's pretty much what makes up Deer Park. It's a pretty small town, and you're pretty much out of the town in about 10 minutes tops. Unless you stop at one of our many food locations, then that's a different story.
6. SkyZone.
Some towns have Bounce, or Air, but Deer Park has SkyZone, the only town to have it on Long Island. And we are the best; not that I'm being biased or anything.
7. Location.
We are literally smack in the middle of the island. If you want to go out east, it's about an hour or so away. If you want to go to the city, it's about the same time. You can't really go wrong when you're really in the middle of everything.
8. Bagels.
Not going to lie, we have some pretty freaking amazing bagels.
