message: I am confused by the percentages listed under populations demographics ... they far exceed 100%, even given the 6+% of persons who are of mixed race. unsigned comment was added by 65.174.137.130 (talk - contribs) 11:47, 20 March 2004 (UTC)

message: Isn't the Octagon building off Brentwood Road near the center of town a building of Modern Times? RahadyanS 14:26, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That's my memory, but it shouldn't be added to the article until someone checks it out in a citable source.  BTW, the Octagon building has been moved to the School grounds on Third Avenue, opposite the oldest water tower.  Funds are being sought to stabilize it, then turn it into a historic classroom.  At least as of five years ago, when I was last in Brentwood. Lentower 16:45, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks. I'll confirm that with info from either the Brentwood Library or the Suffolk County Historical Society in Riverhead. RahadyanS 17:06, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Locations needed 

message: Before Brentwood became developed by the post-WWII suburban housing boom, much of it's land had been farmed.  Much of the farm work was done by migrant workers, many of Hispanic descent.  Note this personal anecdote of Hispanic migrant farm workers, some of whom settled in Brentwood: 
:"Rich Roberts Good friend family 5 generations, the Vasquez's. Andy said Hispanic migrant workers settled going back a good 100 years. One would think the Hispanic history and presence in Brentwood would be an interesting story. Most settlers in 20th century really newcomers compared to early farmers and farm workers."
This anecdote is not a WP quality source.
If WP quality citations can be found, both should be included in this article.  I have not had a chance to check Dyson (1950) or (1953). Lentower (talk) 21:29, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

message: If it's even going to be the title of a section, define it. Best I can do from a search is "Census Designated Place." But what does that mean? Different from a town? Profhum (talk) 08:54, 10 December 2017 (UTC)
