History

Swanzey is peaceful, pleasant, and cozy -- a small town with big personality. Swanzey is not completely rural, but far from the urban hustle and bustle of the city. The town has roughly 7,000 residents, and it exudes a quiet charm -- the type of town where you can truly get to know your neighbors.
Swanzey is more or less divided into a city center, and the four villages of North, West, and East Swanzey, and Westport. East Swanzey is a little quieter than the other villages, a little more spread out for those who would like to live the quiet country life. West Swanzey is a little pricier than some of the other villages, but still surprisingly affordable.
A deep love for the history of the town is part of the Swanzey resident's character, and the Swanzey Historical Museum is run entirely on donations and volunteer work. The museum showcases the town's natural and cultural heritage, from how the land was formed to the history behind specific buildings and key figures in the town's lineage. Another great cultural attraction would be the West Swanzey Covered Bridge. Built in 1832 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the West Swanzey Covered Bridge is so picturesque that you could see it being used for an establishing shot in a movie to let us know that the film is set in a quaint, pleasant little community.

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.
