Convenience for commuters and their wallets in The Hill
The Hill is a vibrant New Haven neighborhood known for its abundant trees, parks, restaurants and local resources, including a public library, community service organizations and the Yale-New Haven Hospital and Medical School. With Interstate 95 running along its southern border and Downtown New Haven less than 2 miles away, The Hill provides residents with a convenient location at comparatively lower prices than some New Haven neighborhoods.
The Hill’s homes offer lower rent or purchase prices than Westville
The Hill’s sidewalk-lined streets have narrow two- or three-story colonials, Victorians and Queen Anne houses. The City Point Historic District, which is near the harbor, has a particularly well-preserved collection of historic homes from the late 1800s and early 1900s. While there are a few single-family homes in The Hill, most have been converted into multi-family houses. These multi-families typically range from the high $200,000s to the mid $800,000s, while single-family homes can cost between the mid $100,000s and the low $400,000s. The Hill’s small collection of waterfront condos usually linger in the $500,000 range. With a median sales price in the low $300,000 range, prices in The Hill are lower than in nearby areas. Most residents rent their homes, and these lower home prices often translate to lower rent. “In some areas, like East Rock and Westville, the rents are sky high,” says Lisa Cozzi, the team leader of the Cozzi Team at Century 21 AllPoints Realty who has sold homes in New Haven for 25 years.
The Hill offers a range of housing options for different budgets.
Multi-family homes in The Hill start in the high $200,000s.

The Hill is a popular neighborhood among local investors
Chantal Lallier, a Realtor and Cozzi’s partner at Century 21 AllPoints Realty, says that The Hill is popular among investors, who often buy homes and renovate them for tenants. “What we’ve experienced with our investors in the past year is that they’re looking for those value add opportunities versus something that’s turnkey,” Lallier says. “They just get more return on their investment this way.” She adds that over the past three years, there’s been a massive push to renovate The Hill’s homes, leading to better rental options for residents and appreciating home values for investors.
Walkability, commuting to Yale-New Haven Hospital, downtown and beyond
Downtown New Haven is just a mile away, and many residents work at Yale-New Haven Hospital, which is right in The Hill; abundant sidewalks allow people to easily commute on foot, but other options include biking, driving or taking the bus from one of the many CT Transit stops dotting the neighborhood. The Hill has long been a hub for public transportation. "The Hill has the Union New Haven Station right here, which makes it a prime spot for commuters," says Lauren Freedman, a Realtor at Coldwell Banker Realty. For New York commuters, Metro-North's New Haven line offers eight trains on weekdays. Cozzi and Lallier say that this accessibility is another major factor in The Hill’s draw for investors and residents. U.S. Route 1 also runs through the neighborhood, connecting to Interstate 95 in a matter of minutes.
Navigating school choice in New Haven Public Schools
Students in The Hill are served by New Haven Public Schools. They can attend zoned schools like Truman School, but the district’s school choice program also allows students to apply to magnet and out-of-district schools, or alternate schools within their district. Seats are limited and assigned through a lottery system.
Truman School serves students from kindergarten through eighth grade.
The Sound School provides unique educational opportunities for students.

Diverse eateries, upscale waterfront dining and downtown shopping
The restaurants scattered throughout The Hill offer a diverse array of cuisines. SoBol is the go-to spot for a morning acai bowl, while Sabor Nuestro has Dominican and Puerto Rican cuisine. Other restaurants offer Jamaican, Mexican and Chinese food, and La Cayeyana Donis Bakery offers sandwiches and sweet pastries. For a special night out, Freedman recommends heading to the water’s edge. “The harbor has some great options for dining along the boardwalk and incredible views,” she says. Shell & Bones Oyster Bar and Grill, located at the end of a dock that extends into Winter Harbor, is a favorite for steak, seafood and sunsets. Residents get groceries at Key Food Fresh right in The Hill or drive into nearby West Haven for Stop & Shop. Downtown New Haven offers more shopping at local boutiques just over a mile away.

Small inland parks, nature preserves and access to the water
The Hill has five community gardens and is dotted with small parks and playgrounds. Residents have access to spots like:
Amistad Park, a quiet green space with shaded walking paths and benches near the hospital.
Kimberly Field and Bayview Park, which offer fields for sports like cricket, soccer and baseball.
Long Wharf Point, a small waterfront nature preserve that hosts nature walks, field trips and summer camps.
Trowbridge Square Park, where the annual Hill Neighborhood Festival features live music, DJs, vendors and kid-centered activities like puppet shows.
West River Memorial Park, which is in nearby West River and offers space for kayaking, fishing and crabbing.
Thanks to The Hill’s proximity to the water, residents can also head to Winter Harbor for kayaking, fishing and boating. Avid boaters often join organizations like the City Point Yacht Club.
