 Fairfield, Connecticut is a town consistently celebrated by Money
 magazine as one of the Best Places to Live. The iconic town of Fairfield is
 situated on the picturesque and ecologically flourishing Long Island Sound,
 home to five town beaches and miles of  sandy shores.  Fairfield is renowned for
 its natural beauty, strong community, enviable cuisine,  and a dynamic interplay
 of seaside and countryside living.



 Long noted for the Community’s scholastic prowess, Fairfield Residents are
 accustomed to witnessing a very significant percentage of children matriculate from
 the illustrious Fairfield school system to gain acceptance at many of the most elite
 universities in the world. Fairfield’s commitment to provide a superior education for all
 of its children accounts for its well respected eleven elementary schools, three middle
 schools, and four high schools, two of which are private.



 Fairfield is also home to two highly regarded institutions of higher learning,
 Fairfield University and Sacred Heart University.  While these college campuses
 add a special dimension to the town’s diverse culture, it is abundantly clear
 that Fairfield in general is not part of a College Town... but rather, the
 Colleges are a part of Fairfield.


 The town of Fairfield Department of Parks and Recreation
 maintains 170 acres of parks, 5 miles of beaches, 36 playing
 fields, 2 golf courses, 2 marinas, a Fitness Center, 31 asphalt

 tennis courts, amongst other important recreational
 facilities. This enviable lifestyle becomes even more
 compelling when realizing that Fairfield offers
 great transportation access for New England
 and New York’s economic, sports, and
 cultural opportunities via Metro
