Heights Overview

of Queens. Cambria Heights got its name for being
one of the highest points in the entire city. Residents
here enjoy living in their modest homes and their
quaint, suburb locale. Commuting to Manhattan can
be somewhat difficult from Cambria Heights because
of the lack of public transportation. Cambria Heights
is primarily a residential area, with a small
commercial shopping district available on Hillside
Ave.
