More so than many of its neighboring communities, the city of Norwalk is all about the coastal lifestyle. The famous Norwalk Islands sit just offshore in Long Island sound, providing a popular area for kayaking, fishing, clamming, and bird-watching (if you’re lucky, you may even spot some deer or seals). For nature lovers preferring more accessible encounters, the Maritime Aquarium at Norwalk is a crowd pleaser and attracts visitors from all over New England.
Norwalk’s charm comes in large part from the many historic houses and buildings, including lighthouses dating back as far as the 1820s. The city celebrates its history as an oyster-farming community with the annual Norwalk Oyster Festival, which regularly draws national touring musicians as part of its entertainment lineup. In recent years, Norwalk has also supported more public art initiatives, resulting in many murals popping up around the city and a renewed focus on community involvement in the arts.

School data provided by
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.
