Nothing really to do in Darien, but the neighboring towns are always the best, I personally love driving and the towns are so close by. Darien is also near the water which is convenient in the summer! It's also only one hour away from New York City which I love
Darien has always felt like a pretty safe town. It is competitive but schooling is excellent. Our classes are practically college level courses. We definitely experience all four seasons, but snow not so much as you would expect.
Overall I’m grateful to have grown up in this town.

Darien is the best! I love living here because the schools are great, the restaurants are great. Waterfront property! This place is epic.. Everyone is very nice and chill. The real estate is very nice. We love the vibe.
