Life in Elmont

Elmont, New York is an unincorporated community Nassau County, New York. It is a suburb and bedroom community (a community that is almost entirely residential, populated in large part by people who commute to a nearby, larger, city for their jobs) of New York City. Its population is estimated at about 33,000. The community now known as Elmont can trace its roots back to a land purchase in 1650. Dutch colonists established New Amsterdam in the region, and the colony was eventually transferred to the English, who renamed it "New York." In 1905, the Elmont became home to the Belmont Race Track, which is a major venue for horse racing, and hosts one of the legs of the Triple Crown. During the economic boom following WWII, attractive suburban tract homes began springing up in Elmont, which is largely how it adopted its current role as a residential suburb of New York City. Modernly, Elmont, New York is an extremely diverse city, with roughly equal parts of its population (about 40% each) being African-American and white.
