Urby is nice and expensive. There's a lot of dogs there, you can bring them to the courtyard on a leash. The area is safe too, within walking distance of all the restaurants downtown. The facilities are super nice, they have activities for the residents, cafe downstairs... Rent is just high. Also I'm not sure where Yale is, but New Haven is about an hour from there (at least to the Ikea) and to NYC it's an hour train ride. If it wasn't so expensive considering how much space we had in the actual apartment we'd probably still be there.

Are you still in Stamford and renting the apartment somewhere else? Can you give some suggestions? What about the noise in the area at Urby, especially at night/weekends?

We bought a house in Norwalk so can't help you there. Noise level at night wasn't bad. Actually it was worse during the weekdays. We had an apartment with a view of a construction site (the new building) but I'm sure that's winding down. There were some nights where there were some loud college age kids in the hallways, but other than that it was pretty quiet.
