Huntington Station is more than a transit hub

Huntington Station is a hamlet in the Town of Huntington that takes its name from its Long Island Rail Road station. But it’s more than a transit hub: the area boasts quick access to beaches and parks, relatively affordable housing stock 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 in Suffolk and Nassau counties. Huntington Station is also the birthplace of poet Walt Whitman and home to the Walt Whitman Shops—one of the largest malls in the area.

One of LIRR’s busiest stations

In 2023, the New York Governor announced millions of dollars in grant money to revitalize the area surrounding the Long Island Rail Road’s Huntington Station, making New York Avenue a safe, walkable and affordable commercial hub. The village’s LIRR station is already one of the busiest on Long Island, with the ride to Midtown taking just over an hour. The drive, mainly on I-495 or the Long Island Expressway, takes closer to two hours during the busiest times of the day.

Huntington Station has a convenient train station which is just over an hour to the city.

There isn't much vandalism, graffiti, or inoperable vehicles in the area. There have been lights that go out but they are fixed within a reasonable time frame. There was a yard that was well overgrown for about a year but they recently came and mowed it. Some of the roads around here are a bit bumpy and there are certain cracks in the sidewalks as well. But altogether, it's not too bad.

It's very peaceful, and not much happens around the town. The only issue I have, as a resident of 17 years, is that there isn't a lot to do once you get around to everywhere and everything. Other than that, this town is lovely.
