Wooster Square
Just over the train tracks from Yale and downtown, Wooster Square has a distinct neighborhood feel. It has been home to Italian families in New Haven dating back generations and even became a part of the National Register of Historic Places in 2016. As beautiful as its buildings are (some of which date back to the 18th century), the real benefit to living in Wooster Square is your proximity to some of the best pizza this side of Italy. Dueling pizzerias Frank Pepe’s and Sally’s are in the neighborhood, making your dinner decision an easy one.
