Levittown: Postwar Suburb Built at Scale
Levittown, in the Town of Hempstead in Nassau County, was built between 1947 and 1951 by William Levitt and Sons as one of the first mass-produced suburbs in the United States. More than 17,000 houses were built during that period on former potato fields, creating the template for postwar American suburban development. Population is around 52,000.
The Cape Cod and ranch houses were built on 60-by-100 foot lots using pre-cut components and assembly-line construction techniques adapted from military housing. Original sale prices were around $7,000. The development was initially restricted by racial covenants that excluded Black buyers, a history documented in numerous studies of postwar housing policy.
The community is served by the Long Island Rail Road's Hicksville line and by Hempstead Turnpike as its main commercial corridor. It is within commuting distance of New York City, Garden City, and Hicksville.
