Stratford is lovely.

So I've been to Stratford a few times, I actually went to look at a house that was on main street and no offense to anyone but let's just say main street wasn't what I was expecting. Someone told me that upper/northern Stratford is where you want to be.

Unfortunately Stratford public schools have gone downhill academically. You can go to magnet schools of course, but you can get the same priced house in Shelton with better schools attached.

Good point about the schools, I’m unfamiliar with them. I don’t like Shelton. But I don’t have a valid reason why, I just don’t.

Its not very built up. It's schools are comparable to Milford, but Milford has more to do and a train station that goes right to NYC, so more people move there, but Milford is more expensive.
