    New Haven, CT in the news

    Renter's guide to New Haven, CT

    New Haven is truly one of Connecticut’s best cities! You'll find it on the east coast, where it's known for its culture, history, and higher education. Home to Yale University, you can’t beat the level of intelligence, fun, and excitement found in this medium-sized city.

    At 20 square-miles, New Haven is about 10% larger than Hartford. And it's roughly 80 miles from New York City, 65 miles from Springfield, Massachusetts, and 20 miles from Bridgeport, CT, which means plenty of options for commuting or road trips.

    New Haven was ranked as the Best Foodie City in the country by Livability.com, and is home to two of the Top 10 Best Pizzas in America according to The Daily Meal.

    The weather here is fairly warm during the summer, with temperatures reaching into the low 80s. But average winter temperatures dip all the way into the upper 30s and lower 40s during the winter, even dropping as low as 20°F night.  Overall, New Haven receives around 44 inches of rain and 26 inches of snow per year.

    Tips for renting in New Haven, CT

    Moving to New Haven? It’s a great place to call home. Here are a few of the renters rights you'll have. A landlord has the right to increase the rent without prior notice, as long as the lease period has ended. However, the increase must be in line with the fair market value of the apartment.

    This means that if a tenant believes the fair market value is lower than the landlord’s increase in rent, they can pay the lesser amount and not be evicted.

    While oral agreements are honored, it's always best to get things in writing. And make sure to read your lease in its entirety before signing.
