According to the Suffolk County Planning Department, and as used by the Census Bureau, there are two "Bellports": the Village of Bellport and the larger Hamlet of North Bellport.
The geographic confusion that there may be a "Bellport" in addition to the Village of Bellport and the Hamlet of North Bellport is because the Village of Bellport has a different border than does the "Bellport, NY 11713" ZIP Code postal zone (i.e., a place can have a "Bellport, NY 11713" mailing address and not be in the Village of Bellport and a place can have other than a "Bellport, NY 11713" mailing address and be in the Village of Bellport):
Places with a "Bellport, NY 11713" mailing address that are not in the Village of Bellport are in the Hamlet of East Patchogue and the Hamlet of North Bellport; and, at the same time, there are places in the Village of Bellport that have a "Patchogue, NY 11772" mailing address.
