Madison and Guilford are almost interchangeable but Madison inches out Guilford by a few hairs. They're both beautiful towns and you can't go wrong with either. Madison has a better youth sports program, better sports facilities - highschool sports are also more competitive. Madison has three town beaches vs. Guilford's one. Guilford has better restaurant options, a better downtown, and seems more down to earth than Madison. Madison is more snobby/stuck-up. I've looked at homes for sale in both towns for a few years and Madison has lower inventory and higher prices IMO

Madison is the equivalent to what Darien was like during the 1970s and 1980s. People walking about, waving to each other not afraid to stop for a quick chat, a bit of snob culture sprinkled in.

Grew up in and lived in Guilford for 25+ years. This is spot on.
