"If Hicksville, like so many other Long Island places, had an Indian name, it might be translated as "place of many little houses and big stores" in tribute to this solid, old-line, mid-Nassau County communitys expanses of snug Cape Cods, split-levels and ranches, and its two retail giants." John Rather, New York Times
Located in eastern Nassau County and the dead center, north-south wise, of Long Island is the hamlet of Hicksville. An unincorporated collective area within the Town of Oyster Bay, Hicksville is bordered on the south by the eponymous Levittown, and has many similar qualities to the post-World War II version of suburbia. Along the many main arteries that crowd the town such as Old Country Road, Broadway, and Newbridge Roadare a series of strip malls, furniture stores, and other types of commercial development. The most notable industrial aspect of Hicksville is the large Broadway Mall, which is home to IKEA, Macys, Target, a large multiplex and around 100 other shops--shopaholics will swoon. See more
