New Hyde Park sits right on the Queens line, which gives it a Main Line LIRR station, a short ride to Penn Station and Grand Central Madison, and the Cross Island and Northern State within minutes. For anyone who works in the city but wants a Nassau address and Nassau schools, this is one of the most practical places on the map.
I have done thirteen transactions here - two sales and eleven leases, almost all of them at 400 and 410 Jericho Turnpike - so I know the rental side of this town better than almost anyone. On the sale side I closed $749,888 for a four-bedroom on Maple Drive West and $640,000 on Tottenham Place. The school structure is the thing to get right: New Hyde Park addresses feed one of several elementary districts and then into the Sewanhaka central high school district, except where they are in Herricks, which is K-12.
Grounded in my own closed transactions
My two sales closed at $640,000 and $749,888, both four-bedroom houses. That brackets the heart of this market well. On the rental side, eleven leases at 400 and 410 Jericho Turnpike ran from $2,150 to $2,500 for one- and two-bedroom apartments, which is as close to a hard local rent comp as you will find anywhere.
For reference, my 2 closed sales in New Hyde Park ran from $640,000 to $749,888. They are all listed further down this page.

District websiteThe catch
I name districts and link to them rather than ranking them. For enrollment, performance and spending, go to the State's own data: NYSED school report cards. School attendance is determined by the property, not by the mailing address, and should be confirmed with the district before you go to contract.
$11,000 – $20,000
typical annual bill, all in
Village of New Hyde Park addresses carry a village tax; North New Hyde Park and Garden City Park addresses do not. Herricks district addresses generally carry a higher school levy than Sewanhaka-area addresses. Those two variables, more than the house, set the bill.
These are ranges for the kind of house in my closings here, not a quote for any address. Pull the actual bill before you make an offer: Nassau County Land Records Viewer and the Department of Assessment. I will do it with you.
about 30–35 minutes, peak
to Penn Station
A Main Line stop, so most trains run straight through without a branch transfer, and both Penn Station and Grand Central Madison are served. One of the shortest commutes in Nassau.
Times are approximate peak-direction runs and change with every timetable. Check your own hours on MTA TrainTime, and ride it once before you buy.
