Neighborhood

The charming neighborhood of Utopia is just that—a residential utopia of sorts. Since its early start in the 1940s, Utopia has stood as symbol for residential bliss, charm, and convenience in east central Queens as a part of Fresh Meadows, New York.

Large single-family homes, townhomes, and apartment buildings fill this neighborhood’s residential streets. A variety of restaurants and retailers reside in and around town, adding to the neighborhood’s convenience factor. Located just 12 miles east of Manhattan, Utopia is an easy distance from the big city by car or public transit.

This commuter-friendly neighborhood boasts proximity to large parks such as Kissena Park and Cunningham Park, and is just north of Queens’ campus of St. John’s University. The community has its own parks as well—giving the families in the neighborhood plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors near their spacious homes in this residential utopia.
