We are looking to relocate to Sayville or Oakdale. I loved the village of Sayville, but the houses are very small. I am looking for some feedback on what you think of the 2 areas. Also, seen some houses in West Sayville and West Oakdale, but was told to stay away, is that the general consensus? WE have 2 small girls and want a family community, good schools, the works. We are practicing Catholics and want to be around churches. Don't mind other religions, just want to make sure ours is avail to us. I also saw Sayville schools and Connetquot schools, whats the feedback on those? CAn't wait to hear from you
I don't think all homes in Sayville are small. Sayville is a beautiful town. I lived in Oakdale for 10 years & loved it. My son graduated from Connetquot in 2005, we had a very good experience with the district. There is a catholic church in Sayville, but not in Oakdale-there is one in Bohemia.
I'm not even sure what you mean by "west Oakdale", the most western part of Oakdale runs along the river mostly South of Montauk Hwy & its beautiful there.
Thanks for responding. I have also been researching Bayport. Do you know anything about that area or the schools? They say some of them are Blue Point schools??
Sayville is a hamlet (an unincorporated area) in the southeast part of the Town of Islip, in the south-central part of Suffolk County.

I find that info you recieved to be very misleading. All of Sayville and Oakdale is nice. You should have no worries where ever you choose.
Good luck.
