Zip 06516 (West Haven) blends beach-town ease with commuter convenience, anchored by three miles of shoreline from Bradley Point to the Sandy Point Bird Sanctuary and the historic Savin Rock boardwalk. Expect four true New England seasons—breezy summers, crisp falls, and snowy winters—and a friendly, community-forward vibe. Daily life clusters around Campbell Avenue and the Boston Post Road retail corridor, with Stop & Shop and ALDI for groceries, local cafes and coffee spots, Planet Fitness, parks like Painter Park and the West Haven Green, and eateries such as Zuppardi’s Apizza, Stowe’s Seafood, and Jimmies of Savin Rock. The West Haven Metro-North station, I-95, and proximity to the University of New Haven and downtown New Haven make it commuter- and student-friendly. Waterfront walks, kayaking, and birding are popular, and the area is welcoming to families and pets. Per Zillow’s Market Trends in recent months, the median asking rent is around $1,900, with most rentals ranging roughly $1,400–$2,600 depending on size and proximity to the water.
