My suggestion is to do a Google/Yahoo search for real estate in the area you are considering. Use the MLS system if the realtor provides it and put in the parameters you are looking for. Things to remember: State taxes for NY are out of control relative to the rest of the country (property taxes). NH, specifically Portsmouth, is a common local for pilots as there are no state income taxes and housing prices are still reasonable for the N.E. Vermont is a good choice to commute to JFK and I believe frequency has just increased and the price of housing is reasonable. Although I do not currently do this, I have found that commuting from a place that has much frequency and a short flight is more desirable as you do not battle traffic, you are taken directly to you gate (commute online), and do not deal with employee trains/busses etc.
