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
