text: anyone living in patchogue, ny? please let me know what the neighborhood is like?  the houses seem to be less expensive than towns like riverhead(lousy town in my opinion) patchogue isn't that good - but it is okay.    my sister used to  live there years ago.    the best way to find out is to actually go there. .. but he second best way is to look it up on a realty website.  realestate websites will have a good variety of things to choose from so you can get some decent idea of what kind of house are around that are.    also you should look up the neighborhood statistics for the town.  this way you can see what the crime rate is and info about the school system.  realestate websites have this sort of information.  good luck  :)  http://realestate.yahoo.com/  see stats here. http://www.realtor.com/
