<p>We now live in the town next to W. Hartford. Yes, the schools are good – as they are in our town and several others “over the mountain” from W. Hartford. Schools are also excellent in several of the towns in Fairfield County, CT, where we moved from 2 years ago. BUT, housing in Fairfield County is cost prohibitive – housing up here (near Hartford) seems like a comparative “bargain.” AND, since this is New England, winters are fairly cold – meaning, of course, that heating costs are through the roof. PLUS, CT has some of the highest gasoline prices in the country. </p>
<p>Finding the best mix of all factors for the family in question may take quite a bit of research and prioritizing.</p>
