Stamford sits strategically between New York City and New Haven, just 34 miles from NYC. As Connecticut's second-largest city, Stamford houses eight Fortune 500 companies and maintains the largest financial district in the New York metro region outside of Manhattan. The city features distinct neighborhoods including North Stamford, Downtown, Harbor Point, and Shippan Point, all accessible via Metro-North Railroad's bustling Stamford station.
Across its 52 square miles, Stamford offers a mix of city living and outdoor spaces. Mill River Park provides a green oasis downtown, while Cummings and Cove Island Parks offer public beaches. Cultural destinations include the historic Palace Theatre, the art deco Avon Theatre Film Center, and the Stamford Museum and Nature Center. One-bedroom apartments typically rent for around $2,700, and the 47-minute express train to Manhattan makes commuting convenient. The waterfront Harbor Point area continues to expand with new residential buildings and restaurants along the Long Island Sound.

Apartment Finder utilizes the industry's largest and most complete database of real-time rents and availabilities to help you find an amazing deal on your next rental.
Apartment communities change their rental rates often - sometimes multiple times a day. We track the changes and keep you up to date when a rental rate decreases.
"Best value" units are located in buildings rated three stars or higher. We label apartment rentals that are priced significantly less than similar high-quality units nearby.
Apartment communities regularly advertise deals for new residents. Whether it's a move-in special or a free tv, we locate the rentals that offer a little something extra when you sign your lease.
Note: Based on community-supplied data and independent market research. Subject to change without notice.
