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. Interstate 95 runs directly through Darien, providing residents easy commutes to neighboring towns and cities.
As of October 2025, the average apartment rent in Darien, CT is $2,203 for a studio, $3,283 for one bedroom, $5,440 for two bedrooms, and $7,745 for three bedrooms. Apartment rent in Darien has increased by 5.5% in the past year.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
