Stamford

Equal parts sweet country living and bright neon lights, Stamford's cityscape varies greatly from towering office buildings and high-rise condominiums to peaceful wooded areas in the north and the shoreline beauty of the Long Island Sound.

 

It is the third largest city in the state and the seventh largest city in New England. Conveniently located on the main branch of Metro-North’s New Haven Line, Stamford serves as a vital and vibrant business center and is home to numerous Fortune 500 companies, as well as the headquarters and research facilities of numerous major corporations. Stamford has long been considered one of the country’s most desirable cities because of its ability to offer an attractive suburban lifestyle amid a dynamic economy. The Stamford real estate market provides housing options ranging from modest ranch-style properties to elegant homes and estates in the wooded northern section to luxury waterfront communities. The area is rich in recreational amenities, with hundreds of acres of scenic parkland, beaches, golf courses, tennis courts and marinas.
