A good place...if money is no object. - 7/22/2017
It's no secret that Long Island boasts some of the highest taxes in the nation. Not just property taxes but all taxes. Utilities are also 50%-100% more than other places. For that you'll get good schools, nice beaches, winter sports to the north and the greatest city in the world just 1hr away. You'll also get the full "four seasons", an abundance of amazing drinking water and the best medical care available. But if you're not making enough money to enjoy the city, skiing and the beaches, then everything else can probably be found elsewhere w/o the high taxes. As for jobs; being near the city means good job opportunity...if you're willing to sit on a train for 3-4hrs/day. And be advised; the Long Island Rail Road sucks. More conventional jobs, like sales and customer service, do NOT pay more on Long Island or in NY, so consider that. Long Island is also very segregated. Some may like that, others may not. But it does mean that there are pockets of "bad" areas on Long Island and

I gues all things must change. - 6/14/2010
They say that the only constant in nature is change. That certainly holds true for East Northport, NY. When I was a young boy (late 1950s, early 1960s), it was a small semi-agricultural community. Not everyone knew each other, but they certainly knew someone YOU knew. It is overpopulated now - mostly with five-hundred-dollar millionaires - and the taxes are very high, but it still has its positives: good schools, educated people, and close proximity to Long Island Sound (the dolphins are back!), the Atlantic Ocean, New York City, and the mountains of Upstate New York.
Here's a clue to the "sociology" of East Northport: my father is a Long Island native. My mother was born and raised in Bryn Mawr, PA. She used to tell us that when she first moved here in 1952 she cried for six months because the people were so rude. I guess things don't change that much after

A Good - But expensive - Place To Live - 11/14/2009
I grew up in East Northport, NY. Back in the 1950s and 1960s, it was still a small town and semi-agricultural community. Like many other places in America, urban has taken its toll on East Northport. That said, it is still a great place to live and raise a family: low crime, good schools, beaches and parks, dolphins in Long Island Sound, and a not-intolerable climate. The cost of living here is high, but wages tend to reflect that fact. You can do a lot worse than East Northport, NY. It's no longer the little town I grew up in, but it is still a nice place to

Update of your data - 2/12/2009
I see a lot of your data is from 2007. How often do you update your numbers? In one are, housing, this data needs to be update regularly. The apreciation of properties in 11717 may have been -2.3% in 2007 but we are in 2009 and I saw this number when I first became aware of your site in the fall of 2007.
This data is not current and does not provide the viewer with a good indication of how the city, neighborhood or state is doing at a closer period of time instead of 18 months ago.

one who has seen the light - 5/13/2007
the yuppification and pollution of a once quaint town is discouraging for people who used to live there. LIPA smokestacks now grace the seashore within view of anyone trying to enjoy the beaches when they are not shut down because of sewer effluent ruining both fishing and swimming on many a summer weekend. As if that weren't bad enought property taxes fund a mediocre school system and LIPA utility bills are the highest in the nation.
$400,000 will buy a fifty year old 3br/2ba house in a crummy part of town and the house will be a money pit. Stay away by all means....and I did not even fo into detail about the teenage devil worshipers and drug dealers in town.
