The hamlet draws its name from the Carle House - a 32 room house built by Silas Carle in Westbury in the 1800s. It was called the "Carle Place," and the surrounding area later took the name. An early name (and still-current nickname) for the region is Frog Hollow. As a result, the local high school's sports teams are called the Frogs and the school colors are thus green and white.

In 1946, developer William J. Levitt bought 19 acres for an experiment. His crews brought precut lumber to the site and rapidly assembled 600 low-cost houses on a site near the Carle Place station of the Long Island Railroad, offering affordable suburban living with an easy commute into offices in New York City. Within five years, returning veterans and their families swelled the population by 500 percent. It transformed Carle Place, and served as the prototype for the gargantuan development Levitt began the following year a few miles away: Levittown.
