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, alphabetically and
respectively. 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.
