It depends what you're looking for. If you want a more rural setting then East Granby works. Windsor and Bloomfield have more rental options. If you go east of the river I'd recommend easy access to I-291 since I-91 can be difficult at various times of the day.
Things get more complicated for some people when kids and school options are involved. If that is not an issue, then anyone of those communities could work if they have the amenities and conveniences you are looking for.
Your budget sort of disqualifies you from places like Avon and West Hartford, and I wouldn't go into a city like Hartford with that budget - you're liable to end up in a really nasty area.
I agree in looking around the immediate vicinity of Windsor, as that will be more affordable than closer to Hartford.
Thanks for the advice. I prefer on Craigslist to search for properties with photos, as I try to avoid old, run-down looking locations if I can.
With managed community properties, I'm always open to recommendations. I'm sure there's some decent ones, but there's also the ones with lots of Section 8 people, kids loitering around at all hours of the night, noise from neighbors, etc.
Would prefer a quiet location, we tend to keep to ourselves for the most part.
Also, we can probably swing up to $1200 for a place per month, so likely looking at a range of 800-1200/month. i'm sure we'll find something
I second this recommendation. I know 2 people who live here one's a renter the other is an owner. This property is well kept and you won't find any section 8 people there. Some positives about this place
EZ on/off from I-91 exit 38 (I think Kennedy Rd is exit 39)
Price chopper directly across the street that you can walk to
Buffalo wild wings in the same plaza as price chopper - so you can walk home after drinking alcohol.
Windsor town center 2 min drive. Town center also has an Amtrak station.
About 5 miles from Bradley airport via RT 75 north.
Awesome, I'll put the River Bends at the top of my to check out list!
