What the day-to-day looks like
What stands out
Moving here
You stay inside New York City limits with driveways, yards or a basement, and more square footage than the rest of the city usually gives you.
Moving here
You can pick a North Shore walk-up near the ferry, a mid-island place on the Staten Island Railway, or a quieter South Shore block, knowing the farther south you go the longer the trip.
Travel nurses
If you base yourself near St. George, the ferry is free and a ferry-plus-subway run into Manhattan typically takes 45 to 75 minutes.
Experienced nurses
You can weigh this job against other Staten Island names already hiring nearby, including Northwell Health and Richmond University Medical Center.

New graduates
Westerleigh is known for starter homes if you want a first place with a driveway instead of a walk-up.
Experienced nurses
Mid-island neighborhoods like New Dorp, Dongan Hills, and Great Kills give you suburban blocks with Staten Island Railway access if you do not want to live on top of the ferry.
The city
Living in Staten Island, NY
Staten Island offers a quieter, more suburban feel within New York City, with waterfront parks, the Greenbelt's wooded trails, and the iconic Staten Island Ferry linking residents to Manhattan. It's a borough where neighborhoods like St. George and Tottenville move at a calmer pace while still keeping the city within reach.

Who they are
The island sits inside city limits but lives like a string of neighborhoods: St. George by the ferry is the most urban and walkable, mid-island spots like New Dorp, Dongan Hills, and Great Kills sit on the Staten Island Railway, and the South Shore — Tottenville, Annadale, Eltingville — feels the most suburban and takes the longest to cross.
