Levittown is a hamlet in the Town of Hempstead located on Long Island in Nassau County, New York. Levittown is midway between the villages of Hempstead and Farmingdale. As of the 2000 census, the CDP had a total population of 53,067. Levittown gets its name from its builder, the firm of Levitt & Sons, Inc. founded by William Levitt, who built the district as a planned community between 1947 and 1951. William Levitt is considered the father of modern suburbia.[1][2][3] Levittown was the first truly mass-produced suburb and is widely regarded as the archetype for postwar suburbs throughout the country.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levittown,_New_York
