Hicksville Housing Profile

Over 80% of homes built between 1940 and 1969 -- understanding your home helps you plan and budget

Hicksville's housing stock is defined by the post-World War II building boom. A full 80.76% of homes were built between the 1940s and 1960s, predominantly GI Bill-era Cape Cods and ranches on modest lots, with a median construction year of 1955. Unlike Levittown, which was entirely planned by one builder, Hicksville grew through dozens of smaller developers -- producing slightly more variety in home sizes and layouts, while still overwhelmingly relying on oil-fired heating systems.

The typical Hicksville home today is a 3-4 bedroom expanded Cape or ranch running 1,200-1,600 sq ft of heated space. Original homes were smaller (900-1,100 sq ft) but most have been extended over the decades. Standard tank size is 275 gallons, with many homes in older sections having above-ground tanks in the basement or utility room. Annual consumption for a typical Hicksville home runs 1,000-1,500 gallons depending on size and insulation.

Natural gas is available on many Hicksville streets, but conversion costs and the age of existing oil systems mean oil remains the dominant heating fuel for the majority of single-family homes. Heating season runs November through March, with January often bringing Nassau County's coldest stretches.

Long Island Heating Oil Price Context

Regional benchmark data from New York State's official energy pricing authority

📈

Long Island Average Retail Price

Nassau & Suffolk County residential heating oil

Long Island consistently runs $0.15-$0.30 per gallon above the New York State average due to higher distribution costs and stronger seasonal demand. For Hicksville, which sits at the heart of Nassau County's densest residential zone, multiple licensed dealers service the area -- meaning real price competition that benefits homeowners who take the time to compare.

The best time to order in Hicksville is typically late August through October before winter demand peaks, or during mild mid-winter stretches when spot prices dip. A typical Hicksville household using 1,200 gallons per season saves $180-$360 per year by comparing dealer prices rather than sticking with one supplier automatically.

Heating Oil Questions from Hicksville Homeowners

Answers specific to Hicksville's 1950s-60s housing stock and delivery patterns

A typical Hicksville home built in the 1950s uses 1,000-1,500 gallons per heating season depending on size, insulation, and thermostat habits. Original Cape Cods and ranches (900-1,100 sq ft unmodified) consume closer to 800-1,000 gallons. Expanded homes with finished attics and additions run toward the higher end. Check your delivery receipts from the last 3 years and divide by heating degree days for your most accurate personal estimate.
Natural gas lines run along many Hicksville streets, so conversion is technically feasible for many homes. However, the decision depends on your boiler age, conversion costs (typically $5,000-$15,000), and current gas vs oil pricing. Many Hicksville homeowners find that comparing oil dealer prices annually delivers meaningful savings without the upfront conversion cost. We're an oil price comparison platform, so we're not in a position to advise on fuel switching -- but speaking with a licensed HVAC contractor gives you an accurate conversion estimate for your specific home.
No -- above-ground basement tanks are common in Hicksville's 1950s homes and all licensed dealers in our network are equipped to fill them. The fill pipe is typically accessible from outside the house. If your tank is in an unusual location, mention it when ordering so the driver comes prepared.
Long Island prices are historically lowest in late August and September before demand picks up. Filling your tank then typically locks in $0.20-$0.50/gal below peak-winter rates. The second-best windows are mild stretches in January-February when a warm week causes a brief price dip. Our comparison tool shows today's live pricing from dealers serving 11801 and 11802.
Most dealers serving Hicksville require a minimum of 100-150 gallons for standard delivery. Ordering a full tank (200-250 gallons) typically gets a better per-gallon price. Emergency deliveries of smaller amounts may be available at a premium. When comparing prices on our platform you'll see each dealer's specific minimum for your zip code.
