Ridge Community

Our town is the gateway to the Pine Barrens. We are located east of Middle Island and west of Calverton in Suffolk County. Ridge, a rural oasis in the middle of suburbia, is considered horse country by some people. Our 184 acre Environmental Conservation area features hiking, equestrian and nature trails. Since development on the Pine Barrens is banned, Ridge should remain sparsely populated.

Ridge's business district is made up of a few convenience stores and gas station, some restaurants and small eateries and the  Ridge Post Office located on route 25. King Kullen and K-Mart are located to the west.
The LIRR does not have a station in Ridge. Nearby trains in Shirley, Yaphank, or Port Jefferson take an hour and 15 minutes to get to Penn Station. The faster electric train in Ronkonkoma only takes an hour. Ridge is located 50 mile outside Manhattan.
