As a result, the Melville school district, Half Hollow Hills, is Affordable and wonderful.

Melville doesn’t have a LIRR train station and locals commute to either Huntington or Farmingdale station most of the time. There are many restaurants and nightlife on Route 110, and Melville is a safe and good place to raise a family. Commercial businesses also make for easy shopping along Route 110 or in the Walt Whitman Mall.
