Anyone familiar with Greenwich CT

[Anonymous]

We have been looking at Westchester but given that CT taxes are so much lower and Greenwich is not much father away for commuting purposes, would love to look there.

Can anyone share pros or cons if they are familiar with the area? Also, we are Jewish and I know at one time there were very few Jews who lived there, but I have been told there is much more of a community there now. Does anyone know if this is true?

Thanks for any insights!

There are a lot of threads on here about Greenwich have you looked down this forum a few still exist.

And there are a few of us who grew up there. I was in Riverside on the cusp of Old Greenwich and attended Greenwich High School.

I know things have changed considerably but mostly the town was very Jewish / very Catholic and that was a good balance. I think it's also always been a very international community due to the commute to Wall Street. (We were a family from Europe who knew people from all over the world living there).

I felt safe there, the schools were excellent and I made some life long friends.
