Current Resident: Dix Hills is a beautiful area that I have called home for 25 years. Great mature trees, different house styles, and blocks of front yard gardens paint astounding beauty across the town's landscape. Neighbors of different backgrounds, cultures, and races make it a beautifully diverse neighborhood. I feel very fortunate to grow up in such a safe neighborhood and have access to Half Hollow Hills school district where I fostered a love for education from a young age. Its perfectly manicured lawns result in landscape companies working all day, so I am left with the one complaint that it is moderately noisy with mowers and blowers from as early as 7AM to 5PM any day of the week. It is also moderately expensive in property taxes, making it a somewhat exclusive town. A final added plus however is its very close access to many towns, including Deer Park, Commack, and Bayshore, which all have amazing shopping and grocery store variety.... Read 46 reviews

Current Resident: Living in Stony Brook, NY is a dream come true. It has a small village vibe and is an hour away from New York City and less than an hour away from all the Hampton beaches. Truly a must to at least come an visit. The Stony Brook village has cute shops and a hiking trail walking distance plus a marina to walk around.

Current Resident: Centerport is really an amazing town that has a lot to offer. Although it is relatively small, Centerport has a lot to offer. The views of the mill pond from all sides, the privacy of the beaches like Fleets Cove and Centerport Beach, and the accessibility to the famous Vanderbilt Museum and Planetarium are only things you'll find here. The town is extremely friendly and safe, along with amazing restaurants and cafes.Centerport belongs to one of the best public schools on Long Island; Harborfields. Theres no questioning why the nickname for the district is "Happyfields" because everyone who belongs to it feels a sense of belongingness and security. Centerport is easily one of the most underrated towns on Long Island and should be recognized with pride.... Read 18 reviews

Current Resident: Overall East Northport is a lovely small town. Neighbors are relatively nice and friendly. The Northport Village is not too far from here as well. There are many shops and local businesses that are truly amazing. If your a dog person, this is totally a place for you, almost everyone has a least one dog. The East Northport library is a lovely place to be for the entire family, with friendly and patient staff. Additionally the public schools are very good. They offer a ton of extra curriculars as well as amazing electives to select from. The teachers at Northport Highschool are absolutely some of the most amazing people I have had the pleasure of working with. Everyone is generally very friendly here and very open/accepting of others. If your looking for homey little small town, this is definitely the place for you.... Read 36 reviews

Junior: I very much love the school I go to and have been privileged to attend since 7th grade on a generous scholarship. My teachers are my favorite part: the maximum class size is 16, so the individual attention students get is critical to learning and understanding material. They are also available and flexible with their schedules to help the student as much as they can. With clubs and activities, students can join a myriad of different options or, if they want, just create their own! I'm in a bunch myself and it's awesome to be around other kids with similar interests. The facilities are first-rate and always kept fresh and updated. The administration runs the school very well and there is not much I can complain about, honestly.... Read 38 reviews
