Nassau County is the western half of Long Island, home to Hofstra, Adelphi, LIU Post, SUNY Old Westbury, Molloy, and Farmingdale State, spread across the county's many towns and villages. Student housing is suburban and clusters in the neighborhoods immediately surrounding each campus. Most students start their search a year in advance, and leases typically run either 10 or 12 months depending on the landlord.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should I look for off-campus housing?
Most students start their search a year in advance. The biggest wave of leasing happens August through November, with a second wave running January through March. Apartments in the most popular student neighborhoods fill quickly, so the earlier you start touring, the more options you'll have.
What neighborhoods do students usually live in?
Hofstra students most often live in Hempstead, Uniondale, and surrounding villages near the campus. Adelphi students cluster in Garden City and the surrounding Mineola area. LIU Post students typically live near Brookville and Greenvale on the campus's North Shore location. SUNY Old Westbury, Molloy in Rockville Centre, and Farmingdale State each have their own surrounding rental markets in the towns immediately around campus.
Are utilities typically included in rent?
It depends on the landlord — every property is different. Some rentals include water and trash, others bundle in heat or internet, and many leave all utilities separate. Always confirm exactly what is included before signing, and ask for a recent utility average if heat or electricity is not covered.
Are leases 10 months or 12 months?
Both are common — it depends on the landlord. Twelve-month leases run the full calendar year and are typical for annual rentals, while ten-month leases align with the academic year for students who go home over the summer. Always check the exact lease start and end dates before signing.
Is Empire Off Campus free to use?
Yes — browsing listings and contacting landlords is completely free. There is no signup required, no application fees, and no middlemen. You reach out directly to the landlord by email or phone.
