Nothing in East Northport can be considered "sketchy". There area some apartments around the train station but that's about it.
The less desireable area is the grid streets between Larkfield, Clay Pitts, Pulaski, and Elwood Rd. This is the more working class area where I grew up and my parents still live. Never had a problem with crime or trashy neighbors. The most desirable areas are mostly east of Larkfield and have large lots, the further east you go, the nicer it gets.

Thank you.What do you think of the small area of half acres that is within the Elwood district?

A map of the Hamlet of East Northport in the Town of Huntington, Suffolk County:
The Hamlet of East Northport has a different border than does the "East Northport, NY 11731" ZIP Code postal zone (i.e., a place can have an "East Northport, NY 11731" mailing address and not be in the Hamlet of East Northport and a place can have other than an "East Northport, NY 11731" mailing address and be in the Hamlet of East Northport): places that have an "East Northport, NY 11731" mailing address that are not in the Hamlet of East Northport are in the Hamlet of Greenlawn, the Hamlet of Elwood and the Hamlet of Commack; and, at the same time, there are places in the Hamlet of East Northport with a "Northport, NY 11768" and "Commack, NY 11725" mailing address.
My daughter's "best friend" lives there. Nice lots. Not sketchy at all.
Re: the school districts, I think there are benefits to both districts. ENpt is larger and offers more classes when the kids get older. Elwood is smaller. Depends on what you prefer.

In case it's needed ...
A map of the Hamlet of Elwood in the Town of Huntington, Suffolk County:
Elwood is one of those many villages and hamlets on Long Island where none of the places in the community have the hamlet name in their mailing address: places in the Hamlet of Elwood have a "Huntington, NY 11743", "Greenlawn, NY 11740" "East Northport, NY 11731", "Commack, NY 11725" and "Dix Hills, NY 11746" mailing address.
There are three school districts in East Northport. SD #4 (Northport-East Northport) covers most of it. Parts are also in Elwood SD #1 and Commack SD # 10.
You can find out in which community (city, village or CDP) a house is actually located, which is oftentimes different from the community named in that house's mailing address, by using the Census Bureau's online address search function. (CDP, or Census Designated Place, is the Census Bureau equivalent for a hamlet in Nassau and Suffolk Counties.)
And, very importantly, among other things, the Census Bureau's online address search function also indicates in which school district an address is located.

I believe the the section of EN that attends Commack schools is bounded by Clay Pitts Rd (north boundary) , Burr Rd (south boundary), Larkfield Rd (west boundary) and Townline Rd (east boundary). It's a really nice part of EN as well.

I completely agree, this is the best area of East Northport.
