Fact text
- Hauppauge's name comes from a Native American word meaning 'sweet waters', locals got their fresh drinking water here instead of nearby Lake Ronkonkoma, where the water wasn't drinkable.
- The Long Island Innovation Park at Hauppauge is reportedly the second-largest industrial park in the entire United States, with over 1,000 companies and 55,000 workers.
- Impressively, that massive industrial park, 1,000+ companies and all, is protected entirely by an all-volunteer fire department.
- Actress Lori Loughlin and Bud Harrelson, a key player on the legendary 1969 'Miracle Mets' World Series team, both called Hauppauge home.
- The hamlet's name is so tricky to pronounce that locals had to phonetically spell it out: it's simply 'HAW-pog.'
