About Farmingdale
The Village of Farmingdale has a walkable Main Street and LIRR station, close to Bethpage State Park. Farmingdale sits in the middle of the Island, away from the shoreline. As an incorporated village, Farmingdale has its own village government, and building permits and code enforcement usually run through the village rather than the Town of Oyster Bay. It covers roughly 1.09 square miles of land, according to the Census Bureau.
Its neighbors include Bethpage, East Farmingdale, Old Bethpage, Plainedge and South Farmingdale.
Storm, Water and Fire Risk in Farmingdale
Away from the coast, the most common losses in Farmingdale are burst and frozen pipes, failed water heaters, appliance leaks and basement water. The remnants of Ida in September 2021 showed how fast heavy rain can flood basements far from the water, and whether a water backup endorsement is on the policy often decides those claims.
Homes in Farmingdale
Farmingdale has a large share of older homes, many built before World War II, with plaster walls, original millwork and wiring and plumbing that have been updated piecemeal. Matching discontinued materials and bringing repairs up to current code are frequent points of disagreement.
