Single-family homes make up 73% of New Canaan's housing; the rest is condos, two-families and apartments, which brings property managers and associations into the mix.
The median home in New Canaan was built in 1967, close to the 1960s house that's typical statewide. That's newer than next-door Darien (median 1957) and older than Stamford (1972).
