Niche, a data aggregation and visualization site has ranked communities across America based on where they stand in a number of categories and after crunching the numbers ranked Stamford at number 107 overall out of every city in the US with at least 100,000 people.
New Haven came in at number 187.
While only 230 cities of this size were included in the rankings by Niche, when considering the attractiveness of the cities for young professionals Stamford and New Haven ranked 47 and 57 respectively.
Both cities received their lowest marks, a “D+,” for the combined availability and affordability of housing while enjoying very high grades for their nightlife, diversity, and the commute offered to centers of employment, both likely helped along by easy access to New York City which ranked number 65 overall.
