Schools in our database near this area, ranked by BOC Score. The list favors schools with a related program on record, but program availability and delivery format change, so confirm directly with any school that it currently offers the program you want.
This page lists 3 schools within 40 miles, closest group first, then ordered by BOC Score with the highest at the top. 3 of them carry a score.
Scores come from IPEDS (2024) and the U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard. Earnings are for all graduates of a school, not one program, so treat them as a signal about the institution rather than about this subject. Sponsored listings are paid placements and are labelled as such; they are separate from this ranking and never change it. Read the full methodology.

The Hartford median of $98,450 is below the national median of $105,650, and below the Connecticut statewide median of $102,860 (BLS OEWS, May 2025).
The metro’s location quotient of 2.21 means statisticians are more concentrated here than in the average U.S. labor market (BLS OEWS, May 2025). Higher concentration generally means more employers competing for the same people, and an easier job change later.
Statistician roles concentrate in government, pharmaceutical, insurance and research employment, which favors capital regions and metros with large research institutions.
