Nestled along the Long Island Sound between Stratford and Fairfield, Bridgeport boasts a rich history and an abundance of modern comforts. It’s the largest city in the state, brimming with New England charm and urban amenities in equal measure. Even though the city is known for its travel options to New York — car, train, or ferry — there’s still plenty to do at home. The arts scene in Bridgeport is incredibly diverse with the Greater Bridgeport Symphony, Housatonic Museum of Art, and the Downtown Cabaret Theatre. Bridgeport’s widespread cultivation of parks and green spaces has led to the community’s nickname, “The Park City.” Residents also greatly enjoy the animals at the Connecticut’s Beardsley Zoo.

Single-family home rentals in the charming New England style can be found in the northern reaches of Bridgeport. To the south, modern apartment communities provide residents with easy access to the entertainment district in downtown.
