My move is the New Canaan line - Glenbrook or Springdale. $3 a day to park. The trains are less frequent but in the mornings there are direct trains (Glenbrook, Stamford, NYC). There is even one that skips Stamford.

Diversity is the problem….. u gotta share a class with someone who doesnt have the same knowledge or doesnt speak the same language, not as motivated as you, thinks schools a joke. Why do i wanna keep sharing class with people who dont care about it….. honestly home school or they have to find better options to start creating better private schools or private lessons around here

HOME SCHOOL….. ive lived in stamford 26 years now…. Im almost 30….. public school is garbage and so is the private schools and magnet at a early age is amazing to do any of those but thru middle school and highschool i reccommend homeschooling…. Teachers dont care about enhancing students and even if they want to they have to abide by school or board rules. They dont get paid enough….. schools here turn out to be not as hard and more activity related because 70% of the students dont have the attention spans to focus on curriculums….. you can bring ur kids to a all white town and i hear worse about them or u can keep them where its diverse and now its crap on top of crap. I recommend home school. Hire a private tutor/teacher. Its what ALOT of people are doing especially after covid

Not sure if they are still available, but a monthly pass at the Stamford garage is $70/month. Not sure how much daily parking is, but it’s not much more than $8, I think. Driving to Greenwich to take the train involves I-95 which would seem to defeat the purpose of taking the train. You could drive to Noroton Heights and park there for $4/day. And because you are catching the train before it reaches Stamford, you have a better shot at getting a seat on the train. Of course, the train doesn’t come as frequently at Noroton Heights. Good luck!

I take the train to GC from Stamford 3 times per week. The garage attached to Stamford Station is fine and only $8 for the entire day. It’s covered and has a skyway to the tracks. I arrive there around 7:00 AM; never have a problem finding a space.

There are a number of parking options (just do a google search) but they are all pricey. We usually park a bit further down off Atlantic St in a garage there. I think it’s Metro Green. Saves a little bit of money but is still expensive.
