Riverhead, NY

 

Riverhead is a town in Suffolk County, New York, United States, on the north shore of Long Island. Since 1727, Riverhead has been the county seat of Suffolk County, though most county offices are in Hauppauge. As of the 2020 census, the population was 35,902. The town rests on the mouth of the Peconic River, from which it derives its name. The smaller hamlet of Riverhead lies within it and is the town's principal economic center. The town is 166 miles (267 km) southwest of Boston via the Orient Point-New London Ferry and is 76 miles (123 km) northeast of New York City.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the town saw an influx of Polish immigrants. This led to the creation of Polish Town, a section of the Town and County seat where the popular Polish Town Fair is held annually. Riverhead is the agricultural apex of Long Island, with 20,000 of the 35,000 acres of the island's farmland located within the town. The town is also home to four separate beaches which are open year-round. Iron Pier, Wading River, and Reeves Beach each offer boating access for residents and visitors alike.

European colonists purchased the "Southold land" from the local Algonquian-speaking Native Americans and Shinnecock Indian Nation in 1649. An additional portion was purchased from Col. William Smith and divided among settlers in 1742. The town of Riverhead was created in 1792 as part of new jurisdictions after the American Revolution. The New York State Legislature divided it from the town of Southold, New York, which lies to the north and east. Riverhead was separated at the behest of its inhabitants, who "represented to the Legislature that their town is so long that it is very inconvenient for them [people of western regions of Southold] to attend at [sic] town meetings, and also to transact the other necessary business of the said town, and have prayed that the same may be divided into two towns". 

The poor western sections of Southold, with no harbor and little commerce, were thus divided. On March 13, 1792, the Legislature passed a bill splitting off this section under the name River Head. The new enclave's first town meeting was scheduled to be held on April 3, 1792. River Head was named the county seat of Suffolk County (called a "county town" at the time), and its name was later combined with Riverhead. By 1902, its approximate population was 2,500.

Riverhead is bounded by Long Island Sound to the north, Southold to the east, Southampton to the southeast, and Brookhaven to the southwest and west. According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 201.3 square miles (521 km2), of which 67.4 square miles (175 km2) is land and 133.9 square miles (347 km2) (66.53%) is water. The town is partly on the North Fork of the county. The eastern terminus of the Long Island Expressway is in Riverhead.

The town's tourism sector benefits from its proximity to popular destinations like the Hamptons and the North Fork. Visitors can explore the Long Island Aquarium, a family-friendly attraction featuring marine life and interactive exhibits. For those seeking retail therapy, the Tanger Outlets provide a shopping haven with a wide range of retail brands. History enthusiasts can delve into Riverhead's maritime and transportation heritage at the East End Seaport Museum and the Long Island Railroad Museum.
