Stamford, CT is Ranked Within Top 100 American Cities by Money Magazine

Here is a map of Stamford, CT which is located on the Long Island Sound

A recent article in Money Magazine places Stamford in the top 100 American Cities.

Why are we give such a high rating? The article quotes an abundance of jobs in the finance sector as both UBS, RBS and Thomson Reuters have large corporate facilities here. Stamford is in close proximity to New York City as well.

There is a small town feel here; Though our population is pushing 110,000 residents, we still maintain a warm friendly downtown atmosphere.

The quality of life is high: the educational facilities both public and private are excellent. Parents are very much involved in the quality of education their childen receive.

The neighborhoods each have their own distinctive character. Belltown has its cherished large park where many a little leaguer is getting his start. Glenbrook has many charming older homes and so many friendly neighbors. Shippan is a beautiful community that sits on Long Island Sound and North Stamford is full of rustic charm with many lakes and streams flowing through it.

Our crime rate is low.

Next year, we hope Stamford will be amongst the top ten.
