An upper middle class town located in the center of Nassau County, Long Island and known for its, Conservative, Roman-Catholic population. Students at GCHS are known for their work-hard, party-harder mentality, with many getting good grades, being sick at some sport, and then throwing down hard on the weekends. Many sport the preppy look, however their is a growing minority of skaters, goths, and emo kids who stick with each other, but generally everyone gets along pretty nicely. Some live in multi-million dollar plus homes (such as those on the Garden City Golf Club (snob hill), Stewart Avenue, and some in the Estates and Mott) but most live in normal sized 500,000 to million dollar homes on the East Side near Country Life, in the Esates, or in the mott.) Many of the adults are wall street traders, brokers, lawyers, business owners, or doctors. Kids tend to throw down either at a house party or in random outdoor locations. The smart kids and great athletes of gchs tend to end up at Ivy League or similar institutions (Georgetown, Boston College, Notre Dame, NYU, UVA, Lehigh, Bucknell, Loyola, Trinity, Colby, Bowdoin, Haverford, etc.) Other popular choices include Villanova, Fairfield University, and Fordham University. Some at GCHS are stuck up and can be mean but most tend to be pretty laid back and chill. The language of Garden City includes words such as 'shwag' and 'sketchy.' Most athletic recruits are from lax or field hockey, which produce many state championships for the school. Many go on to have jobs similar to their parents, such as Wall Street Jobs and law jobs, but some may deviate from the norm. Overall, GC residents agree that it is a good place to grow up and live.
GC KID: Dude Friday at O'McCallagans was so shwag, i dont remember what happened but I think i hooked up with that sketch field hockey chick and i woke up on McShannahans front lawnn with no clothes and McDooligans longstick.
NON GC KID: WTF?!

Really rich town in Long Island, NY. Very preppy and all of the kids there are freakishly good at lax.

I live here. I drive a 2001 Honda Odyessy and I don't play lacrosee. Its very white. Almost no blacks, spanish or any diverse people. Luxury cars don't come at a premium, however the high school parking lot isn't filled with them. Mostly the parents drive them. Like almost everyone in my senior class i'm going to a respected university without a lacrosse scholarship. Even the lacrosse kids are smarter than the valedictorian at most surrounding high schools. Yes everyone drinks and we all wear nice clothes. Those who hate on our town are simply jealous that they: don't live in a million dollar home, are not going to a good college, do not drive a nice car, do not wear nice clothes, and do not rage as hard as we do. Come to Garden City for a weekend and see.... we're better than you....at everything....and we know it.
This kid out drank me by 12 brews and didn't have a BAC....must be from Garden City

I look like shit compared to this kid...he must be from GC

Extremely wealthy town located on Long Island. The town is quite safe and beautiful, the people living there, however, are the most stuck-up human beings you can possibly imagine. Don't get me wrong, not the entire population of Garden City is like that. There are actually some awesome people who live there,but they are often referred to as 'loners', 'goths' or 'losers.' It's almost impossible to take a walk in Garden City and not come across a rich daddy's girl driving a brand new BMW carrying a Gucci or Coach handbag and sporting a pair of Christian Dior shades. The most popular trends in this town are preppy clothes such as Abercrombie or Ralph Lauren.
These rich teengers totally do not deserve all the wealth they posess because they do nothing but waste their parent's hard-earned money; they were merely lucky to be born into wealthy families, or families that appear to be rich. Few people in this town are actually as rich as they seem. They can afford those expensive luxuries only because their parents take out huge loans from the bank and are in gigantic debts hidden by a wealthy image.
Yes, many of these teenagers do get into Ivy League schools. But why? Because of their parents financial connections. There are people who work hard in school, but they are stereotyped as 'geeks' or 'nerds.'
The Garden City team happens to be named: you guessed it, the Trojans. Could it be more appropriate? It's no secret the kids there are, or desperately want to be sexually active. (For those of you unfamiliar with what I'm talking about, Trojan is also a brand of condoms.) The town is filled with sluts, whores, and guys who want to get into someone's pants, after all, it's almost what teens talk about all day long. Surprised?
The most popular sport in Garden City is lacrosse. The garden city teens claim to be insanely good at this sport, and think they can get into a great college, grow up to be professional athletes, when in reality they're nothing but mediocre.
When these lazy, free-loading teens grow up to be adults, they will probably either be living off the inheritance their parents left them or take over their parent's businesses and hire someone else to do the work while they sit around collecting the profit made from these businesses.
The bottom line is this: Garden City is a beautiful town, but they people living in it suck. I HATE THE PEOPLE THERE. Garden City is only a good place to raise your kisd if you want them to become useless free-loaders.
GC girl #1: O.M.G. My daddy is such a dick!
GC girl #2: What did he do?
GC girl #1: He got me a jaguar when I wanted a pink buggy! What a jerk!
GC girl #2: How could he do that?! That is so mean!
GC girl #1: I know! I never get ANYTHING I want!
GC girl #2: I know what you should do! Drive every car he gets you into a tree until he gets you the one you want!
GC girl #1: Great idea!
Normal Girl: Where are you girls from anyway?

a mid-upper town. Where everyone hides their insecurities with money. The girls are sluts, most with really bad fake tans and will be quick to suck a dick like its the newest fashion trend. The guys there think their hot even when people beg to differ. Some are really conceited dicks and take longer to get ready in the morning than most girls. At GCHS the teams there are either good or they suck ass. The hardest thing to do there is find a genuine nice person. Its a great place for kids if you wanna get caught up in drugs alcohol and sex.
"Jock": Do you remember that party last night in garden city, where you passed out on the floor, before this girl gave you head! hahaha you should go get tested who knows where that mouth been.

A small town in tucked in the corner of Southwest Kansas. Filled with Mexicans that have terrible dental health and style.

Terrible place to raise your kids, unless you want your daughter to get pregnant at 11 (it happens...all the time). Drugs, sex and rock & roll would be their motto, but people mostly like rap music there.

It smells like cow poop. Everywhere. When it rains, you smell it. When the rain dries, you smell it. When it's windy, there's a blanket of poop-smog that is similar to fog itself.

A literal s**t town.
"Yo, I went to Garden City the other day and I swear it's so shitty, it SMELLS like cow poop!"

a town where everyone THINKS they are good at lax...but they are not. Everyone thinks they are rich, but the only reason they have money is because mommy and daddy keep borrowing from the bank so they are in debt.

GC SUCKS! YEAH MANHASSET LAXXXXX!
We were thinking of an easy team to scrimmage in lacrosse, so we chose Garden City.
