Money Magazine has ranked Greenwich number one on its list of the 100 best places to live in the United States. The 67.2-square-mile town, which has referred to itself as the Gateway to New England, is bordered to the south by the Sound, to the east by the city of Stamford, and to the west and north by Westchester County, New York.
With a population of about 62,000, Greenwich offers an outstanding housing selection and numerous distinct neighborhoods, including Woodland Country Estates as well as Riverside, Old Greenwich and Cos Cob with their elegant waterfront properties. With more than 1,500 acres of parkland and 30 miles of shoreline, Greenwich offers a wealth of outdoor and recreational opportunities. Trails and paths are popular during summer months with bicyclists and rollerbladers. An active community sailing center creates a haven for boaters, and four beaches on Long Island Sound provide ample opportunity for enjoying the sun, sand and surf.
Rich in culture, Greenwich is home to the Greenwich International Film Festival, a symphony orchestra, a choral society and the Bruce Museum. The town is accessible to New York City in about 45 minutes. The closest airport, about 15 minutes away, is the Westchester County Airport, followed by LaGuardia and John F. Kennedy International Airport.
