Astoria Overview
 Astoria was given its current name in an attempt to honor the oldest John Jacob Astor, who had a vacation house in what is now known as Astoria.  In addition to Astoria, which is the main area, this section of Queens also contains an area called Steinway.  Steinway, was settled by the Germans in the 19th century.  Steinway was given its name because Theodore Steinway, the piano manufacturer, had a piano plant here.  Steinway Street, Broadway, Ditmars Boulevard and 30th Avenue, are the major shopping streets in Astoria.  Astoria is very diverse in both culture and the arts, and is commonly known for being a safe, relaxed environment to reside in.

Astoria Residents & Culture
 Astoria is largely Greek, as well as German, Italian, Asian, and South American cultures have influence here as well.  Astoria is primarily made up of both young professionals and small families who have been priced out of Manhattan and Brooklyn.

Astoria Residences & Rents
 Astoria offers both single and multi- family homes and a few large apartment buildings, as well.  Astoria has an abundance of fair rents, ranging for studios from $900-$1050, one-bedroom from $1100- $1350, two-bedrooms from $1300-$1650, and three-bedrooms from $1700-$2400.

 Astoria has convenient access to the New York City subways "N, R, G, V, and W" trains. The Ditmas Boulevard station takes you to 59th Street and Lexington in approximately 16 minutes, Grand Central Station in approximately 25 minutes, and Herald Square in approximately 29 minutes.
