| Once an isolated rural farm community, the North Fork has become one of the most popular areas on in New York State. Unlike much of the rest of Long Island, which has struggled with overpopulation, development and congestion, the North Fork has managed to retain its rural character and small town character, while stepping into the 21st Century as a popular getaway rivaling other East Coast hotspots like Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket and the Hamptons. The North Fork is comprised of Southold Town and a majority of the Town of Riverhead, dotted with quaint rural hamlets, each as unique as the next, nestled among bucolic farm fields and vineyards.
The North Fork boasts an array of activities for the entire family, making it a popular vacation spot throughout much of the year. Fishing, boating, swimming and beachcombing are among some of the most popular recreational activities the North Fork has to offer, but onshore there is also plenty to do. Wineries, restaurants, and shops make the North Fork come alive. The area even boasts its own water park and aquarium, as well as many other family-friendly destinations. The North Fork is also a popular spot for second-home buyers and those looking for vacation rentals.
While some prefer to make the North Fork their home away from home, many fall in love with the area, settling down in a community rich in history, culture and spirit. Fine schools, cultural, civic and religious organizations, and community events help tie residents of this diverse community together. Growing up on the North Fork presents children with a unique opportunity to live in a safe, healthy and fun environment. Aside from living on or near the water, kids on the North Fork can enjoy the area's many parks, two skate parks and many sporting facilities. Parades, festivals, galleries, museums and educational centers make the North Fork a fun and exciting place to live and learn. Increasingly, families are driving the North Fork real estate market, buying homes and land, seeking the perfect place to live.
