Reply to comment by curbthemeplays in best places to live around New Haven? by Swagnasty95

We're both in our mid 20's with no kids. Definitely looking to rent with no plans on buying a house for years to come. I don't think we want to live downtown as none of us have ever lived inside a big city before and we both enjoy having as much nature close to us as possible.

Gotcha. East Rock and Westville could fit that bill in New Haven. Lots of green and parks nearby. Walkable, but leafy and relatively quiet.

Also, it’s most definitely a small city. Even downtown is fairly chill.

There are no big cities in CT, but Id also recommend Westville / East Rock for getting outdoors.

You'd have either East or West rock within spitting distance which makes it easy to get outside, even in the cold months. I'm always amazed at how empty West Rock is, very peaceful.
