As an out-of-towner looking to move to Westport, I have a hard time judging which corner of town would work best for a family with children.
I’m especially interested in having other kids around for some of that old- fashioned, unstructured, non-adult organized playtime. Your readers’ thoughts will be much appreciated. Thanks!
Leaving aside the question of whether there is any place here with non-adult organized playtime, let’s crowd source this one.
- What are the pluses and minuses of your neighborhood?
- What about other parts of town?
- What factors did you consider when moving where you did — and what have you learned about your neighborhood that you wouldn’t have known before?
- If you had it to do over again, would you move there? If not, where else in Westport would you go?
Remember, our reader has young kids — so please keep that part of her search in mind.
And please be both honest and civil. I know you can do it!
Last summer, kids living near Compo set up a lemonade stand. In 4 days, they raised over $500 for the Hole in the Wall Gang.
Meanwhile, the other end of town features the easily kid-accessible and ever-popular Christie’s Country Store.
