Farmingdale has cultivated a distinct atmosphere of small-town charm over the past decade, while simultaneously experiencing rapid growth through the revitalization of its downtown area. Presently, the village, which straddles the border of Suffolk and Nassau counties and lies adjacent to Bethpage State Park, serves as a central hub for surrounding communities. Additionally, its community events and pedestrian-friendly downtown attract residents from Oyster Bay, Babylon, and beyond throughout the year. Farmingdale has been consistently voted the “Best Downtown” in the Bethpage Best of Long Island Awards from 2015 to 2025 by Long Islanders. The village’s appeal can be largely attributed to its wide range of entertainment options, including daytime shopping, nearby parks, and a lively nightlife. Farmingdale Village offers a diverse array of community events, catering to families, art enthusiasts, parade enthusiasts, and live music aficionados. The village has a long history of providing numerous dining options, with a section of Main Street dubbed the Culinary Quarter-mile, featuring dessert, coffee, and live music venues. Farmingdale is an attractive destination. The train station is set to become a major transportation hub, conveniently located within a five-minute walk from Downtown.
