Coventry encompasses a vast swath of pristine Connecticut countryside only 19 miles east of Hartford. With a community-driven feel and a laidback vibe, Coventry attracts a great number of families looking for a residential locale without being too far from the city. Apartment rentals and homes are surrounded by dense tree coverage and vibrant landscaping. There’s also an incredible community centered on Wangumbaug Lake near the center of town.
Main Street holds a few local restaurants, but the real allure of Coventry is the abundance of outdoor beauty that surrounds it. Nathan Hale State Forest and Uconn Forest neighbor the town. Great schools and proximity to the University of Connecticut make this ideal for students too. Travel to Hartford in less than 30 minutes view U.S. Highway 44 and Interstate 384.

GreatSchools
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.
