Moving to Naugatuck

Making a move can be a daunting prospect, but it doesn't need to induce a panic attack -- with some planning and foresight, it can be relatively painless. Here are some essential questions to ask yourself before you get started:

How much will it cost?

The good thing about living in Naugatuck is that you're faced with varied housing options that are not available or are more expensive in neighboring towns. You can find 2 -or 3-bedroom city apartments in Naugatuck that fall within a comfortable price range for different incomes.

How long is the commute?

Many people who live in Naugatuck go to work in the neighboring suburbs like Fairfield, New Haven, Oxford, and Middlebury. If you're in the same boat, commute time is something you can't afford to disregard. Test-drive different neighborhoods so that you know how much time you'll spend on travel each day.

What will you have to prepare?

Aside from preparing rental money (of course!), you need to have your proof of income, credit history, and previous landlords reference with you. Moreover, if your beloved Fluffy or Rover is tagging along, prepare your pets records as well for good measure. Your prospective landlord may need far more substantial evidence than that adorable video of Muffin playing with a ball of yarn.
