City - Darien

Darien is a coastal city in Fairfield County, near the border of Connecticut and New York. Its close proximity to Manhattan (plus local beaches!) makes Darien a great place to call home for those looking for big-city amenities and nightlife in a suburban locale.

The city is considered a “bedroom community” due to its lack of office spaces – meaning, most residents live in Darien but work outside of it like in nearby Stamford or New York City. Two Metro-North subway stations reside in Darien and provide easy travel to Grand Central Terminal or the remaining stops along New Haven Line. If you’re looking for fun, Darien is home to eleven parks, numerous country- and yacht clubs, plus public beaches on the Long Island Sound.

Like other large cities, Darien is divided into smaller subsections. Numerous restaurants surround the Darien Station, including the Melting Pot, Green & Tonic, Bodega Taco Bar, and Meatball & Co. bistro. Love to shop? Small, upscale boutiques thrive here.
