Worth checking out this weekend: 5 houses in Queens under $1 million
If you're looking for more space and a bit of a suburban feel without having to decamp to New Jersey or Westchester, the far-from-the-subway portions of Queens are an option worth checking out, as you can still find a house in the borough for under $1 million.
