Single-family homes in the North Babylon Union Free School District sold for a median of $700,000 (typically $630,000–$750,000) across 222 recorded sales between Oct 7, 2025 and Oct 1, 2026, up 9% on the 12 months before.

ZIP 11704 has about 2.2 months of single family inventory — seller's market. Demand is outpacing supply, so homes sell quickly with firm pricing and limited room to negotiate.
At about $13,795 a year, this home's property tax runs roughly 15% above the $12,000 typical for North Babylon Union Free School District. Suffolk bills combine town, school and special-district levies, so two homes at the same price in neighboring districts can carry materially different taxes. Exemptions such as STAR, Senior or Veteran move the number as well — a new owner's bill is often not the same as the seller's.
