El Charrito hits.
They have a truck that they usually keep parked on the West Side, by the strip club Beamers. If you want sit down, they have another location on East Main Street - the building that looks like a Dairy Queen.
Not sure if they have margaritas though...

Be home at a reasonable hour, and aware of your surroundings; and everyone should be ok. Winning formula for me thus far.

Also a great place to get shot or stabbed

Just be warned Urban Connections charges a broker fee (usually equal to one months rent). It also took me two weeks and about 6 reminders to get a copy of my lease from them. Once they have your $$ they don’t care to help anymore.

The townhouses are good but definitely see them in person first. They are about a foot off the sidewalk with floor to ceiling windows so you get no privacy or need to keep your blinds closed 24/7.
The 6th floor lofted apartments are great though if you want more space, but they are still overpriced.

I will DM you. Until I’m able to get out of here, I can’t post much publicly.

I liked living at elementone! The townhouses are expensive and really hard to get though so don’t bank on that

How come? I am looking at their townhouses and the floorplans look like a good match for us.

How do 40 people get into a fight? Did two rival gangs coincidentally go out to dinner at the same restaurant or something?

We have had a horrific time at Element One (Bozzuto). Like, the worst experience we’ve ever had in an apartment in 2+ decades of renting. We broke our lease and are leaving soon. I feel like I need to sell my left kidney to pay all the fees, but it’s that bad.

If you want a real luxury apartment, live in Highgrove. Harbor Point is a luxurious college dorm.

Would NOT drive to the city, train is soooo much better.

I second this. I looked into harbor points apartments before moving to Stamford and thought Arrive was just as nice and slightly better price. Haven’t had any issues here. I also drive to the city and those time should be fine, but I personally try to get the train as I find it to be less stressful depending how far in the city you’re going.

Thanks then what buildings in general would you recommend?

Luxury, lol. All of the new apartment buildings constructed over the years in Stamford are built amusingly cheap.

Highgrove Luxury Apartments, 70 Forest St #C45D7F778, Stamford, CT 06901
$7k/month downtown Stamford.

I will third the sentiment that these aren’t luxury. They’re cheaply constructed. The building I’m in is flimsy, has constant maintenance problems, and is LOUD. I call it lipstick on a pig. It’s also the most I’ve ever paid for rent in my entire life, with the least in return for my money.
Edit to add: Do not drive to the city. Ride the train. You will also have to pay a hefty amount to park your car at a complex.

Terrible management and dilapidated construction mostly, look at their reviews.
