Greenwich fuses upscale culture with rural beauty. Celebrities and New York City commuters choose to live here for the appealing atmosphere that blends renowned dining and high-end shopping destinations with beaches, woodlands, and meadows. The area's agrarian past contrasts sharply with today's opulent wealth, visible in the plush estates and the yacht-filled harbor. But with charming neighborhoods and police officers directing traffic around the clock, Greenwich maintains a small-town feel. Be sure to check out Greenwich Avenue, a ritzy shopping and dining district, and Old Greenwich and Belle Haven, two neighborhoods dotted with Victorian and Colonial homes. The downtown area offers the Bruce Museum, but the picturesque New England neighborhoods draw more visitors with fantastic shopping and dining. New York City is only thirty minutes away, but for many visitors, its big-city bustle can't compete with Greenwich's unique combination of wealth, history, art, and family life.
