[carolyn11]

Can anyone tell me about Fort Salonga and Centerport. Was is the commute like to NYC?

[SummerDreamer]

Carolyn your best mode of transportation if you are going to commute back and forth to work is the LIRR. There are no stops at Fort Salonga or Centerport but the closest station is Huntington. It should take about 1hr 10-15 mins by railroad into Penn Station.

If I'm reading the map correctly, the part of the Hamlet of Fort Salonga that is in the Town of Huntington is in the Northport-East Northport Union Free School District and the part of the Hamlet of Fort Salonga that is in the Town of Smithtown is in the Kings Park Central School District.

I believe most of FS is Kings Park SD. Some may be Northport, most being Kings Park. Fort Salonga is a gorgeous area, love it.

Commutes to NYC would be at least 1.5 hrs each way.

[Kbinspections]

Yep....Most of it is in the Kings Park SD......nice area. Good luck!

Centerport is Harborfields.

Fort Salonga is Kings Park mostly and some MAY be Northport. Check MLS. But I know someone who lives there and this is what she said.
