Student loan income? I hope that means 3,000/mo because that’s what you’ll be paying

Westville (esp in the square between Yale Bowl and Whalley Ave/forest road and Yale Ave) is very young-family friendly!

I live in Morris Cove and am shocked that this neighborhood gets so little, if any, mention in recommendation threads like this. Genuinely curious as to why!
That said, I recommend the cove as a family friendly, picturesque part of New Haven that is worth exploring!

Chiming in for East Haven - especially the area south of 95. My family (kindergartener) just moved to east shore/Morris cove in new Haven. If you can find a spot there, Nathan Hale is known as a good school and there’s a real sense of community. We often do things in east haven and it’s also a nice, safe, and convenient area to live.

Reply to New to New haven, recommendations please by ldelizabeth
Second/third floor apartments are often safer and quieter. 2k can get you places but probably not Wooster. Maybe East Rock.
Bump to small streets in the dingy parts of town. Portsea, Greenwich, Rosetta, Atwater, Peck, Haven, Main St (Fairhaven)...

If you drive, then check surrounding areas for affordability. East Haven, Foxon area, West Haven Hamden all have nice spots (and not so nice) and each have a bus line or two going in and out.
Take your time and check frequently. as you find listings, try posting again asking about specific neighborhoods.

No preference. Convenience and safety are top priority

You could live in West Haven (cheap) or Milford (better schools) and either drive or train in.

As far as pre school you’ll be paying. I recommend Creating Kids( RIP Sandy) or Neighborhood Music School.

Spring Glen in Hamden, it’s about a little over 10 minutes from New Haven but very family friendly

Westville certainly seems popular. I’ll be looking into it. Thanks!

My girlfriends family lives in Woodbridge and apparently they have a fantastic public school(Amity) and good private school (Hopkins). The commute is a bit farther to Yale and there isn’t as much to do in the immediate area. It may make more sense once you’re done with school and have a higher income.

I live in Dwight and it’s effectively the same lack of mentions.
