The hamlet is a part of the North Shore School District, which has traditionally ranked among the best on Long Island. Glen Head was listed as one of the wealthiest zip codes on Long Island, according to Newsday's home value listings. Additionally, it was also listed as the second most expensive zip code of the Northeast region, according to the Luxist website, and ranked 71 nationwide, according to Forbes. Glen Head recently ranked 43rd out of 500 in Forbes national listing for the United States 500 wealthiest zip codes. However, it is essential to note that with the exception of the Incorporated Villages of Old Westbury and Mill Neck; the highly affluent Gold Coast villages of Brookville, Old Brookville, Upper Brookville, Muttontown and Roslyn Harbor do not have post offices or zip codes of their own. Consequently, areas within these communities are served by the Glen Head post office and thereby use this hamlet merely for mailing addresses despite the physical address being within the limits of an incorporated village.
Glen Head is a station along the Oyster Bay Branch of the Long Island Rail Road. It is officially located at Glen Head Road (Glenwood Rd.) and School Street in Glen Head, New York. However, parking is available between Glen Head Road and Locust Avenue on the east side of the tracks and between Glen Head Road and Walnut Avenue on the west side of the tracks.
The village of Glen Head (and the station that serves it) got its name from being the initial terminus "head of the rails" for the Glen Cove Branch from January 23, 1865, to 1867. In July 1866 the Post Office changed the old name of the town from Cedar Swamp to Greenvale, but in Feb. 1874 mad another change to Glenwood. The railroad used the name Glen Head always and this has prevailed. A new station building was opened in May 1888. The station was rebuilt in May 1888, as a two-story red brick structure and contained elaborate gingerbread woodwork along the canopies, similar to that of Yaphank Station. It was rebuilt again midway through 1961 with the current one-story cedar-shingled depot.
A repost, on account a better copy of original tape was found, and the first post had the words "Evaluation Copy" watermarked on the screen; before I bought the software, I tried the trial version.
