Huntington Station is more than a transit hub
Located in the Town of Huntington, Huntington Station takes its name from its Long Island Rail Road station, which is one of the busiest on the island. But it’s more than a transit hub; the area also boasts quick access to outdoor recreation in the form of beaches, marinas and parks, and has relatively affordable houses and highly rated schools. “One of the reasons people like living in this neighborhood is because the public and private schools are very good,” says Robert Bianco, the office manager at Island Advantage Realty.
Many residents commute to New York City for work; for those who work locally, Huntington Hospital, which is 2 miles away, and Northport Veterans Affairs Medical Center, about 8 miles away, serve as major employers. According to Craig Turner, the Deputy Director of the Town of Huntington’s Department of Planning and Environment, industrial complexes along the train tracks also provide jobs.
Popular home styles in Huntington station include ranches, Cape Cods and colonials.

One of LIRR’s busiest stations with improvements on the way
A major transportation hub, Huntington Station brings commuters to Manhattan’s Penn Station in about an hour and 15 minutes. “The town has two parking garages right at the station, so there’s a lot of parking capacity,” Turner says. In 2023, Huntington Station was awarded a $10 million grant to revitalize the area surrounding the station. These plans include increasing walkability, upgrading storefronts, creating a mixed-use development nearby and more. State Routes 110 and 25 run through Huntington Station, opening up commuting options by car.
More affordable housing in Huntington
Homes here are typically on smaller lots, especially closer to the LIRR’s tracks, though they spread out a little more toward the community’s edges. Many homes were built between 1930 and 1960, but there are a handful of newer houses. Ranch-style homes and Cape Cods are common, but there are also plenty of hi-ranches, split-levels and colonial-inspired homes. “A lot of the town’s starter housing stock is located in this community, so it’s a lot of the times where people go to buy their first home or to find a home that might be a little more affordable than some of our larger lot neighborhoods,” Turner says. The median home price is $630,000, which is higher than the national median of $418,700 but lower than the median home price of other Huntington communities. In nearby Huntington Village, the median home price is $860,000, and Huntington Bay’s median price is over $1.7 million. Condominiums in Huntington Station can range from $170,000 to $500,000.

Improvements on the way to shopping along Route 110
Most of Huntington Station’s shops, Hispanic restaurants and delis are stretched along Route 110 and Route 25. For now, the community has a few big box stores, including an Old Navy, Petco and a ShopRite. There are also a few small businesses and local restaurants, but there are considerably fewer options than in Huntington’s downtown just 2 miles north — though the hope is that this will change soon. Everything south of the train tracks is currently on septic systems, which limits what sort of businesses can take root. But in 2025, Turner says, work will begin on a project to bring public sewers to the area. “It’s hoped that this could allow a lot of these property owners to invest in and revitalize their properties,” Turner says. “Bringing sewers makes it easier to add things like restaurants and food shops and some of those other things.” The fully funded $66 million project is expected to complete work by late 2027, but it will pose some traffic issues on Route 110 until then. In the meantime, Huntington Station’s location between downtown Huntington and the Walt Whitman Shops, one of the town’s largest malls less than a mile away, provides plenty of shopping a short drive away.

Athletic fields and improvements at local parks
A smattering of small parks offer playgrounds and athletic fields. The most well-known is Manor Field Park, which has multiple athletic fields and courts, a playground and a spray park that the town of Huntington added in 2022. As part of the $10 million revitalization project for the area near the LIRR station, Huntington Public Library is getting a new playground. Huntington Station residents also have access to the town’s nine beaches. There are also boat ramps and marinas less than 3 miles away.

Huntington Station is split nearly equally between the Huntington Union Free School District, which Niche gives an A-minus, and the South Huntington Union Free School District, which Niche gives an A and lists among the top 10 districts in Suffolk County. A very tiny pocket of the community is instead served by the Harborfields Central School District, which has an A-plus.

Hurricane season in Huntington Station, dropping crime
All of Long Island can be impacted by hurricane season, but Huntington Station benefits from being a few miles inland. There’s still a severe risk of high winds during these storms, but only a minor risk of flooding.
Huntington Station is served by the Suffolk County Police Department’s 2nd Precinct. Between 2020 and 2021, violent crime in the precinct fell by 23.1% and property crime fell by 15.7%.
