I was born and raised in Griswold, and I believe that the town had a large impact on my healthy and happy childhood. I woke up every day excited to go to school because all of the classmates were friendly and cared about one another. The music department in the public schools is wonderful and truly prepared me for an exemplary high school music career. The schools are safe and well-rounded. The town feels quite yet neighborly at the same time. Jewett City is an adorable little city within the town where you can feel part of a larger community while still living in a quiet suburb. There are a variety of sports leagues for students of all ages. The property’s have large and scenic yards and there are always neighbors around. Griswold has various places that are local treasures for nearby residents, including Buttonwoods Farm, Hopeville Park, and a variety of locally owned restaurants and businesses.
I grew up in Griswold and moved away during my Junior Year of high school. Once I had kids I longed to be back "home" so my children could enjoy the sense of community and pride I had growing up. This town really cares about the well being of all people in the community! My children and I enjoy all the town events, the youth center is amazing, and the drive our fellow neighbors have to help our community be the best it can be at all times is truly an inspiration. I am so happy that I had the opportunity to show my children what a really community truly is. Although I have not been overall impressed with the special education in our school system, I am very proud of the unity of the town as a whole. They always come together and fight for what they feel is right or just, as well as what is in the best interests of the community as a whole!
Griswold is a small, close knit community that encourages helping others. The schools are amazing! The homes are affordable. I couldn’t be happier to call this town home. I currently see nothing in need of changing at the moment.
