Huntington is a town of 204,127 residents in northwestern Suffolk County on Long Island's North Shore, making it the 11th most populous city/town in New York State. Founded in 1653 when three settlers from Oyster Bay purchased land from the Matinecock tribe, the town was possibly named after Oliver Cromwell's English birthplace of Huntingdon and initially chose to join Connecticut Colony in 1660 before being restored to New York jurisdiction in 1664 following the British takeover. The arrival of the Long Island Rail Road in 1867 transformed Huntington's economy from agriculture and shipping to tourism and commuting, with Cold Spring Harbor becoming a fashionable summer resort, while post-World War II suburbanization converted it into a major commuter town for New York City. Huntington served as British military headquarters during the Revolutionary War and has faced housing and zoning controversies in recent decades, including a 1988 Supreme Court Fair Housing Act violation ruling and ongoing debates about basement apartments and affordable housing construction. Located between Nassau County to the west and Smithtown to the east, with Long Island Sound to the north and Babylon to the south, Huntington is part of the New York metropolitan area. Farmingdale is an incorporated village in Nassau County's Town of Oyster Bay on Long Island, approximately 37 miles southeast of Manhattan, with a 2020 population of 8,466. The area was first settled by European Thomas Powell in 1687, and the Bethpage Purchase of 1695 established the region that encompasses modern Farmingdale, Bethpage, Melville, and four other communities. Land developer Ambrose George established the village in the 1830s, and when the Long Island Rail Road began service in October 1841, it named its new station Farmingdale, which officially incorporated as a village in 1904. The historic Lenox Hills Country Club, designed by architect Devereux Emmet in 1923, was expanded and reopened as the renowned Bethpage State Park in 1932 under golf architect A.W. Tillinghast, now home to five championship golf courses. During World War II, Farmingdale became a major aircraft industry center, particularly as the home of Republic Aviation Company at Republic Airport in the adjacent East Farmingdale hamlet. Riverhead is a town in Suffolk County on Long Island's north shore, located 76 miles northeast of New York City, with a 2020 population of 35,902. As the county seat of Suffolk County since 1727, the town sits on the mouth of the Peconic River and serves as Long Island's agricultural center, containing 20,000 of the island's 35,000 farmland acres. The town was officially created on March 13, 1792, when the New York State Legislature separated it from Southold to accommodate the western region's residents who found travel to town meetings inconvenient. Early 20th-century Polish immigration established Polish Town within Riverhead, now home to the annual Polish Town Fair and a vibrant cultural community. The town encompasses 201.3 square miles including four year-round public beaches - Iron Pier, Wading River, and Reeves Beach - and marks the eastern terminus of the Long Island Expressway.
