Strathmore is an unincorporated, Levitt & Sons-developed hamlet in the Town of North Hempstead in Nassau County, on the North Shore of Long Island, in New York, United States, within the census-designated place (CDP) of Manhasset.

Although presently considered part of the Manhasset CDP, Strathmore remains distinct from the other areas of the CDP, and the hamlet's name continues to be widely-used and accepted both socially and politically.

The hamlet, which consists of 4 subdivisions, is also often referred to as The Strathmores.[3]

The southern parts of Strathmore once attempted to incorporate as the Incorporated Village of Strathmore – but the proposal was voted down in a referendum vote. Because of the outcome of the referendum, all of Strathmore remains part of the unincorporated Manhasset CDP to this day.
