About Riverside
Riverside sits across the Peconic River from downtown Riverhead, in the Town of Southampton. Riverside sits in the middle of the Island, away from the shoreline, with frontage on the Peconic River. Riverside is an unincorporated hamlet, which the Census Bureau counts as a Census-designated place; building permits and inspections run through the Town of Southampton. By Census Bureau measurements, the hamlet covers about 2.65 square miles of land plus 0.1 square miles of water.
Communities around Riverside include Calverton, Flanders, Northampton and Riverhead (hamlet).
Storm, Water and Fire Risk in Riverside
Water from inside the house is the everyday claim in Riverside: a supply line that bursts in January, a water heater that gives out, or a sump pump that fails during a downpour. Insurers often call these 'long-term leaks' or 'seepage,' and the timing and source of the water become the real dispute.
Homes in Riverside
Because Riverside mixes single-family homes with two-family houses and condominiums, a loss can involve more than one policy at once: a homeowners or HO-6 policy, a dwelling policy on a rented unit, or a building's master policy.
