First post here. We're a young couple and Average temperature is around 52--F, so expect cold winters. With a population of 14,528, Greenwich is a small town. The median home value here is around $1,486,100, which is pretty steep. Rent is about $2,121/month for a decent place. The weather takes some getting used to. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. What neighborhoods would you suggest? Thanks in advance! The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood.

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 2-bedroom. it's been a really good experience overall. Compared to Baltimore it's better than expected.

I've been living here for 3 years and I'd say it's improved dramatically in recent years. The cost of living is better than expected compared to other places I've lived. Overall No regrets on my end..

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.
If you value school system, you'll love it. The housing market is genuinely decent and I've found I love the pace of life here. My neighborhood (Fairview) is stable and I feel safe walking around at night.
But if you're coming from Nashville, be prepared for the culture shock. weather is completely different here. And Traffic during rush hour is rough.
My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, it's not perfect but it works for me. Feel free to reach out with questions..
