Living in Amityville
Forget the movie. Amityville is a harbor village with real maritime history, a walkable downtown, and the most house per dollar anywhere near the water on this stretch of shore.
The numbers tell you something interesting: the oldest median age and the lowest entry prices on my list. Translation: long-time owners are starting to hand houses over, and buyers who move early are getting water-adjacent streets at Lindenhurst prices.
What your money buys
The median is about $570,000, the best waterfront-adjacent value I can show you. Harbor-area village homes in the $500s are the sleeper buy on the whole South Shore.
