The Town of Greenwich, best known for its beautiful homes and interesting residents, including many well-known celebrity figures and top corporate executives, is approximately 50 square miles, including 32 miles of coastline. Greenwich offers easy commuting into New York City via the Metro North Train, major expressways, and is in close proximity to all of the New York City airports. Greenwich’s lovely topography, vibrant downtown shopping district, excellent schools and beaches, contribute to making Greenwich one of the most desirable communities in the tri-state area.
Cultural offerings, such as world-class museums like the Bruce Museum and The Historical Society of the Town of Greenwich, Bush-Holley Historic Site, grace the town as do top hospitals and libraries. The Town also owns and operates an 18-hole golf course, dozens of paddle and tennis courts, the Dorothy Hammil skating rink and several marinas. There are four private yacht clubs, eight golf clubs and a tennis and squash racquet club. Year-round recreation is offered by the YMCA and YWCA, and for children, a Boys & Girls Club, a teen center and very active Scouting programs with the very first chapter of the Boy Scouts of America, founded by Greenwich's own Ernest Thompson Seton.
For those wishing to live in Greenwich, the Town is comprised of several villages that each have their own distinct small-town neighborhood feel, but enjoy the activities, services and amenities that downtown Greenwich provides. These small villages, such as Old Greenwich, Riverside, Cos Cob, Glenville and Byram, flow seamlessly along the shoreline and through backcountry; collectively these villages embody the whole town of Greenwich. While the cost of living in Greenwich is somewhat high, with the average price of a home $1.7 million, the Town offers many amenities that combined with the excellent public schools and low property tax base, make Greenwich an extremely attractive place to live.
