Anyone here from Centerport/Northport area?

Hi everyone! Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays!
We are considering moving to Suffolk (we've been considering for the last year, but covid postponed our plans, we are back looking again) and mainly we want to be in better school districts, we have a 10 year old about to go to 6th grade.

Although we never really considered Harborfields (distance from main highways) we realized it's not too bad. Between Harborfields, Commack, Half Hallow Hills SDs, we really like some of the houses in Harborfields, especially ones near centerport. Rather hilly streets, some aras super narrow, not a lot of room for pool, but houses are nice and some with water view. Any suggestions/anything we need to watch for? We are also looking at area near Greenlawn.

Great area. I'm in greenlawn and my sister is in Centport.
Yes, getting to a highway is sometimes annoying but depending on where you land, its not horrible. No advice but great area and great school district. Good luck.

Thanks for taking time to comment.
I just want a nice family neighborhood my only child can find some friends and can play in our backyard safely, ride his bike around and have access to parks nearby. Some of the area is very hilly, so we've been looking at south of 25A, it's been tough, we'll keep looking.

The problem with some of the areas was that houses were too close to each other, and streets narrow with a lot of cars on streets. It felt a little crowded while others have houses too big for our 3-member family, don't need a 2500 sqft 5br house, also drives taxes up.

Thanks again.

I grew up in Northport. Schools are great and I loved it. Not sure I would ever move back though. We had a lots of yard and big house but looking back very little diversity and not the place for us these days.

There was drug and crime issues that no in talks about because it was rich kids that had too much money, time on their hands and lack of oversight.

All of these things I didn’t necessarily realize until I was older.
