Leafy Long Island suburb with ample shopping
Located in central Long Island, Nesconset is a mostly residential hamlet within the town of Smithtown. Mid- to large-scale homes sit on sizable half-acre lots with old-growth trees and manicured lawns. Top-rated public schools and proximity to reliable commuter transportation are other important draws. “Homebuyers like Nesconset because it’s close to the Smith Haven Mall and has big box shopping along Middle Country Road, New York State Route 347 and Smithtown Boulevard,” says Alex Goldenberg, a broker with Howard Hanna Coack Realtors and resident of nearby Setauket. There’s a good balance between quiet tree-lined residential streets and major commercial thoroughfares.
Costco is the ultimate of big box store convenience in the heart of Nesconset.

Tackan Elementary School has an overall A rating from Niche and a favorable 13 to 1 student-teacher ratio. Great Hollow Middle School also has an A score, while Smithtown High School East has an A-minus, as does Sachem High School North.

Very nice teachers. Lovely tree lined streets. Lots of supremist racists here. If you are looking for an inclusive, ethnically diverse community, stay away from here.
