However, there are also many who call this place their permanent home. To get a better understanding of what it's like to live in Montauk, let's take a look at some user reviews from BestPlaces.net.

According to Mike, who has lived in Montauk for 5 years, "the beach is my backyard and I wouldn't have it any other way." He goes on to say that "the sense of community here is unlike any other place I've lived in. Everyone knows each other and we all support local businesses."

On the other hand, Karen has a different experience, saying that "living in Montauk can be isolating, especially during the off-season when many businesses close down." She also mentions that "housing and cost of living can be a challenge, but the beauty of this place makes it worth it."

Overall, it seems that Montauk offers a unique lifestyle that may not be for everyone. However, those who choose to call this place their home find a special sense of belonging and appreciation for its natural charm.
