Sometimes people get us mixed up with another town in New York State that is named Tuckahoe. That town is north of New York City. We are located east of New York City on Long Island. Our community is considered rural by many people but it is really more like a rural suburb. In the summer, the population here triples and it becomes very crowded.
Many people like to come here because there are beautiful beaches.
We used to have lots of land that was farmland but more and more of it is being developed with houses. Our downtown has regular stores and lots of specialty boutique stores. Our school has grades pre-K through eight. We used to have one class for each grade but we are growing and now we have two. We are building a big extension onto our building.
