The population was 9,792 at the 2010 census. Inwood is included among the Five Towns, an informal grouping of villages and hamlets in Nassau County on the South Shore of western Long Island adjoining the border with Queens County in New York City. Despite the name, none of the communities are towns. In addition to Inwood, the Five Towns is usually said to be composed of the villages of Lawrence and Cedarhurst, the hamlet of Woodmere, and "The Hewletts", which consist of the villages of Hewlett Bay Park, Hewlett Harbor and Hewlett Neck and the hamlet of Hewlett, along with Woodsburgh.[1] The "towns" most commonly included as constituents of the "Five Towns" are all within the Town of Hempstead. Inwood is represented as part of the Town's 3rd District by Councilman Bruce A. Blakeman. GeographyInwood is located at {{coord|40.619240|-73.745705|type:city_region:US|format=dms|display=inline}}.[2] According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of {{convert|2.1|sqmi|km2}}, of which, {{convert|1.7|sqmi|km2}} of it is land and {{convert|0.4|sqmi|km2}} of it (20.19%) is water. Inwood also has a park located on a bay with a launching pad into Mott's Basin. The park is called Inwood Park. HistoryInwood was first settled c. 1817 and was originally called North West Point, named after its geographic position in relation to the more central part of Far Rockaway, of which it was then a part. Its original settlers were Jamaica Bay fishermen, generally lawless and troublesome to other Rockaway residents. Soon after the American Civil War, the area became known as Westville. The first true road in the area, the Inwood end of Lord Avenue, was built when the neighboring village of Lawrence was developed. When the first post office in the village was established on February 25, 1889, the name of the village was changed to Inwood; a post office named Westville already existed in New York State. By the time of World War I, a large part of Inwood's population was of Italian and Albanian extraction.[3] Inwood is home to the famous Inwood Country Club which was the site of the 1921 PGA Championship as well as the 1923 U.S. Open. Inwood was the birthplace of Nassau County's first County Executive, J. Russell Sprague as well as Olympian Ray Barbuti.
