Saddle Rock Estates is a hamlet and census-designated place (CDP) located on the Great Neck Peninsula within the Town of North Hempstead in Nassau County, on the North Shore of Long Island, in New York, United States. The population was 428 at the time of the 2020 census.
The name of Saddle Rock Estates reflects the fact that it is located adjacent to the Incorporated Village of Saddle Rock.[2] However, Saddle Rock Estates has never been a part of that village, and the hamlet merely took its name from its incorporated neighbor.
In 1941, residents were successful in gaining permission to have the Great Neck Water Pollution Control District expand into their hamlet as part of an extension project.[3] At the time, the then-proposed expansion project was estimated to cost $140,000 (1941 USD).
In the summer of 1946, the County of Nassau began work on closing the Old Mill Pond Brook and placed it into a boxed-in culvert.[4] Residents had requested for Nassau to place the brook into a culvert since 1943, and cited that the brook often caused road washouts and basement floods.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 0.1sqmi, all land.[5]
As of the census[6] of 2000, there were 424 people, 134 households, and 123 families residing in the CDP. The population density was 5461.6sp=usNaNsp=us. There were 139 housing units at an average density of 1790.5sp=usNaNsp=us. The racial makeup of the CDP was 94.34% White, 1.65% African American, 1.89% Asian, and 2.12% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 1.18% of the population.
There were 134 households, out of which 50.7% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 82.8% were married couples living together, 6.0% had a female householder with no husband present, and 7.5% were non-families. 5.2% of all households were made up of individuals, and 1.5% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 3.16 and the average family size was 3.26.
In the CDP, the population was spread out, with 30.9% under the age of 18, 5.2% from 18 to 24, 19.8% from 25 to 44, 30.7% from 45 to 64, and 13.4% who were 65 years of age or older. The median age was 40 years. For every 100 females, there were 99.1 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 99.3 males.
The median income for a household in the CDP was $157,231, and the median income for a family was $160,746. Males had a median income of $100,000 versus $51,250 for females. The per capita income for the CDP was $61,249. None of the population or families were below the poverty line.
