Community Profile
Set in a woodsy area along the Nissequogue River with attractions such as the 543-acre Caleb Smith State Park Preserve and historic sites like the Franklin O. Arthur Farm, Smithtown is a great place to raise a family, says Jim Balocca, a resident and agent at Prudential Douglas Elliman Real Estate in Smithtown.
The hamlet has attracted young buyers. In fact, school district enrollment, which declined in the late 1980s, is rising again.
Last fall, Smithtown High School East and Accompsett Middle School reopened to handle the influx.
