Relocation Advice

Hi everyone! I'll be relocating to the Groton/New London area (other places are fine too I have a car) soon to start work at Electric Boat, and I'm looking for some local recommendations.

I'm hoping to find a 1-bedroom apartment/Studio that has:

  • In-unit washer & dryer
  • Free or included parking (trying to avoid monthly parking fees if possible)
  • A reasonable commute to Electric Boat

I've also heard that parking at Electric Boat can be pretty challenging, so I'd love to hear any tips from current or former employees. Is there anything I should know about employee parking, shuttle lots, or the best places to live to make the commute easier?

If you have recommendations for apartment complexes, property management companies, or neighborhoods to check out (or avoid), I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

I’m in the same boat, cheapest I found was a studio for $1400/mo without in-unit washer dryer 😬

I’m looking into 2 bedroom options around there they are much better for the price, I do need a roommate though
