About Hauppauge, New York
Hauppauge is a hamlet and census-designated place in the towns of Islip and Smithtown in western Suffolk County, New York, on Long Island. The first house in greater Hauppauge, according to historian Simeon Wood, dates as far back as 1731, located on what would be the Arbuckle Estate, and later the southeast corner of the Hauppauge Industrial Park, near the intersection of Motor Parkway and Old Willets Path. Royal Apparel's headquarters have been located in Hauppauge since 1992, producing American-made apparel here, in addition to several other locations along the U.S. East Coast. In May 2000, Skidmore, Owings & Merrill opened an office in Hauppauge. (Wikipedia)

Is it worth it?
A rough return-on-investment read from what graduates earn versus what they borrow.
- Median earnings (10 years)
- $26,900
- Typical debt at graduation
- $5,500
- Debt vs. one year's pay
- 20%
- Out-earn a HS grad
- 28%
Typical debt would take roughly 2.0 years to repay at about a tenth of median earnings.
A reasonable return: earnings comfortably clear the debt over a few years for most students who finish.
Earnings are the College Scorecard median for former students (working, not enrolled) 10 years after entry — not a guarantee, and they vary a lot by major. Debt is the median federal loan balance at graduation.
The pay gap here
Median earnings 10 years after entry, split by gender.
Men out-earn women by $8,046 (30%) a decade out.
Federal figures for former students working and not enrolled, 10 years after they first entered. A gap this wide usually reflects which majors men and women here tend to choose — not different pay for the same job.
