I moved to Enfield 8 years ago and I love it here! It's a very quiet town, very active community and scenic. Enfield has affordable housing; have fantastic public schools many students graduate and attend Ivy-league colleges. Easy access to I-91, Route 5, Bradley International Airport and two great medical systems in Springfield and Hartford. Several places of worship, high quality restaurants, and available banking. Fantastic public works and municipal operations especially after snowstorm clean-up. The town organizes for a small fee, yoga classes, learn to cook Italian food or take ballroom dance lessons, etc. at local schools in the evenings. A very active Senior Center, daily events and activities and organizing day-trips for attendees. 4th of July Festival with an annual Parade and Fireworks display.
I like that its small and everyone is close to each other and everyone in town is friendly. There are lots of places to go hiking or walking, lots of restaurants to eat at. There is a large amount of churches of various denominations to choose from. It’s also near the Massachusetts boarder which also lies close to the MGM casino. There is a dog park for those who need one. Another key point is we have a DMV in town which is convenient. One of the things that really is a key point for me living in Enfield is the wonderful police department, I feel so safe living here. Other things that make Enfield a great place is that there are multiple parks and play areas for family’s and their kids and one of the best is at the public library!
Ill be honest, Enfield isn’t the most wonderful place to live. It’s pretty boring, It’s hard to get to places without a car, the police are terrible, and its also very expensive. Enfield is a place for people with a medium family and big income. The schools are decent. Some of the most wonderful people are my school friends and teachers. The bad thing about the schools in Enfield are usual the princelpes, vice principies, and guidance consulares, and security/police are terrible at there jobs. Speaking from personal experience and the horror stories that float around us students in the system.
