About Massapequa
Massapequa is the quiet capital of Nassau County’s South Shore: a bayfront hamlet where a network of protected canals threads through Nassau Shores, Biltmore Shores, and Harbor Green to the open water of the Great South Bay. The finest houses here keep a boat at the bulkhead and Jones Beach fifteen minutes away, while the Babylon Branch delivers Penn Station in under fifty. Between the waterfront and the 423-acre Massapequa Preserve, it is a rare thing on Long Island: a true boating town with a serious commute.

What Sells in Massapequa
Once a month we send the closed sales in Massapequa, measured rather than estimated, with a few practical notes on the house and one thing worth knowing if you are thinking of moving.

A Massapequa home assessed at $1,000,000 carries

a year, an effective rate of 2.50% of market value
- School

Rates are levied per $1,000 of full market value and shown here against the Massapequa school district. This figure does not include special districts (fire, water, library, sanitation, ambulance); STAR, veterans, senior and other exemptions; addresses inside an incorporated village pay a separate village tax at different county and town rates. We pull the actual bill for any specific parcel before you go to contract.

The window to challenge your assessment is short, and it is the same every year
- The window to challenge your assessment opens in January
- In Nassau the filing period runs from early January to the statutory deadline of March 1, and the grievance goes to the Assessment Review Commission. The Commission has extended that date in recent years, to March 31 for the 2027/28 roll, but each extension is announced annually and is not something to count on. It costs nothing to file, and the work worth doing now is gathering what comparable houses actually sold for. Confirm the current date with the Commission before you rely on it.
Filing dates are set by statute and computed from the rule rather than quoted from a past year. Confirm the current date with the assessor before you rely on it.

This figure does not represent the share of homes or parcels at risk in Massapequa — only the share of FEMA-mapped area within a 2-mile radius of the town's page coordinates, not a property count or a town-wide figure; the flood zone of any single address, which must be confirmed against its own FIRM panel before pricing insurance.

Parts of North Massapequa are zoned to the Plainedge, Farmingdale, or Bethpage districts, not Massapequa UFSD — the district line matters more than the ZIP code on those blocks.
Per-pupil expenditure is not published in a form we can verify, so we do not show a figure for it.
