Living in Freeport

Living in Freeport.

Freeport is an incorporated village in the Town of Hempstead, Nassau County, between Baldwin to the west and Merrick to the east, across the Meadowbrook State Parkway. Its ZIP code is 11520, and the 2020 Census counted 44,472 residents, which makes it the second-largest village in New York State.

The Freeport LIRR station on the Babylon Branch sits just north of Sunrise Highway and doubles as a bus hub. To the south, canals lead out through the marshes to the bay, and the Nautical Mile runs along Woodcleft Avenue.

Freeport neighborhood guide

Freeport, a local guide.

The practical side of living in Freeport: the waterfront, the commute, and the village taxes and permits that make Freeport different from the hamlets around it.

The Nautical Mile and the water

The Nautical Mile runs along Woodcleft Avenue, beside the Woodcleft Canal. At its foot, Sea Breeze Park has a boat dock, a volleyball court and a field. The village's Guy Lombardo Marina has 252 slips, open April through November, and Cow Meadow Park on South Main Street is a park and preserve.

Recreation and the library

The Freeport Recreation Center at 130 East Merrick Road has an ice rink, a health wing and a senior center. The Freeport Memorial Library is at 144 West Merrick Road.

Getting around

The Freeport station on the LIRR's Babylon Branch sits just north of Sunrise Highway; check MTA schedules for trains to the city. Sunrise Highway and Merrick Road cross the village east to west, and the Meadowbrook State Parkway runs along its eastern edge.

Utilities

Freeport is one of the few Long Island villages with its own electric company: Freeport Electric, run by the village since 1898, serves homes here instead of PSEG Long Island.

Schools

Most of Freeport is served by the Freeport Union Free School District, with small portions in the Roosevelt Union Free School District. District lines don't always follow village lines, so check the district for any specific address.

Taxes and assessments

Freeport homeowners get a village tax bill from the Village Treasurer, paid in two halves in spring and fall, in addition to the Town of Hempstead bills for school, county and town taxes. The village also keeps its own assessment roll, so a grievance for village taxes is filed with the village in November, separately from the county's Assessment Review Commission.

Permits and flood zones

All construction, plumbing and electrical work in the village needs a permit from the Village of Freeport Building Department, which has a certified floodplain manager on staff and keeps elevation certificates on file. Look up any address on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center before you make an offer.

“Working with Brandon was a pleasure. He helped me & my husband buy our first home. The process can be pretty challenging and frustrating especially in this market, but Brandon was so knowledgeable about the whole process, and most of all he was patient. He really guided us through everything with ease. Answered every question, addressed every concern (and there were plenty). Drove all over to show us houses until we found the one we loved, then he helped us secure it! He was always very communicative and available which is so important, especially once you put in an offer. He was never pushy or trying to gloss anything over. He was up front and honest with us about everything. Even after closing he still checked in with us! I would recommend him to anyone I know who’s looking out on Long Island. Thank you, Brandon!”
