During the year 2020, a lot of people in the New York area realized that it might be time to move out. So they turned their sights to lower-end Fairfield Connecticut, towns like Greenwich, Stanford, and Norwalk. But today, I'm going to tell you why you should consider Danbury in your home search.


The Value


For starters you get more bang for your buck.You can find a $400,000 home, with five bedrooms, three baths, and over an acre of land.


You won’t find a comparable home in Stanford, Norwalk, and Greenwich for less than $700, 000. 


The Commute 


You can get from Danbury to New York City in about an hour and 30 minutes. That's just as long as it would take to get from Norwalk, Stanford, and Greenwich. The commute is almost exactly the same.


The Property Taxes 


Property taxes found within Danbury are around $5,000 to $6,000 versus property taxes within the Stanford, Norwalk, and Greenwich area. Property taxes there won't cost you less than $8,000 or $9,000. When you’re getting a similar home why would you want to pay that much more in property taxes?


So those are three reasons why you should consider Danbury in your home search.
