Bellerose, Queens

Bellerose, Queens

Bellerose, better known as Bellerose Manor, is a neighborhood on the eastern edge of the New York City borough of Queens, near the border with Nassau County. It is sometimes referred to as Bellerose Manor, to distinguish it from the adjacent Bellerose Village and Bellerose Terrace in Nassau [ [http://www.bellerosebusiness.org/history.html A Short History of Bellerose] , accessed August 7, 2006] . The neighborhood is part of Queens Community Board 13. [ [http://www.nyc.gov/html/cau/html/cb/cb_queens.shtml Queens Community Boards] , New York City. Accessed September 3, 2007.] The northern edge of Bellerose is separated from the Nassau border by the neighborhood of Floral Park, Queens to the east.

In addition, residents can catch express buses directly to the city, or city buses to the subway, on Hillside Avenue, Jamaica Avenue, or Union Turnpike the three major arteries that run through the town's limits.

Today, the neighborhood is comprised predominantly of detached houses with a mostly Irish American, German American, and working and middle class population.

It should be noted that, while the northeastern section of Queens Village is commonly referred to as part of Bellerose, it is only adjacent to Bellerose and is not a part of it. This area actually falls within Hollis Hills (11427), itself part of the larger Queens Village area.

Education

Bellerose's public schools are operated by the New York City Department of Education.

Queens Borough Public Library operates the Bellerose Branch.
