A very pompous, rich town filled with japs. Don't be mistaken and compare Roslyn Heights to Roslyn, it is the wealthier part of Roslyn. Especially those attending Wheatly High School. There is no crime whatsoever. Girls have their pradas and their coach's and for their 16th they get a beemer. The High School is packed with Mercedes & Beemers especially black ones. Houses usually don't go for under a million. The town happens to have one of the highest concentrated Hot Long Island girls.
