    "It’s kinda hard to find a place to just let your dog run free maybe that’s what they would not like but it’s friendly neighborhood and most of the time everybody gets along good"
  • Brenda Savage
    "We have privacy. We are not really involved with our neighbors, but at the same time, we know we have support from them and they from us."
  • Itsybitsybeauty
    "I moved here before Christmas and it’s been absolutely wonderful. The neighbors, the overall feeling of the town is amazing."
  • Kate
    "This town is a commuter town at best. There aren’t many local businesses at which folks might work, so commutes for working age people average 20-40 mins daily. "
  • Lejaza03
    "This school system is very good And it provides lots of opportunities for students that they may not be able to have a larger school systems. "
  • Hlbruel
    "Most of town has no sidewalks. There are not a lot of neighborhoods. There are a lot of single streets off of busy roads."
  • Mr. O.
    "Not a great place to live if you’re a minority. Pretty much everyone has a trump mentality however not everyone. Definitely regret moving here and looking forward to living in a more diverse environment. Taxes are a killer and many families are selling and moving out of state due to taxes being so high. CT is absolutely forcing people to leave the state with their high tax rates"
  • Trulia User
    "Somers is a great area for dog owners with lots of scenic places you can walk your dog however sidewalks are limited in certain areas. "
  • Liz
    "It takes 15 minutes to get to I91 or I84. My commute to work is just under an hour. No public transportation that I’m aware of."
  • Liz
    "I have lived here 5 years, nice town, great school system, but not a very friendly town and not a great sense of community "
  • frankpetrella
    "Built house in Somers 27 years ago, raised Family, utilized Public School system. Small, quiet horse farm town, low crime, good schools, open and forested land, low taxes. Great place to live if you enjoy quiet with small town atmosphere and amenities."
  • Jude
    "Somers is a town for peacefulness! It has the basics...grocery, pharmacy, Urgent Care, public golf, great schools, hiking trails, limited shops and restaurants. The taxes are reasonable and in the next towns find hospital, full restaurants, movies, shopping malls. Come to Somers if you want clean air, friendly neighbors, great schools, and an arm's length away from all conveniences!"
  • edwinfurnari
    "It does not get any better than this! Blue ribbon schools, quiet country farm town."
