Hampton, CT is number 10 on my project to visit every town in CT. Ten towns in, and I still haven’t crossed the threshold of a population higher than 2,000.  Hampton was established in 1786, and has a population of 1,728.  It is located in Windham County, in CT’s NE

Town number nine is Bridgewater.  I’m really making progress!  Only 160 more to go. Located in Litchfield County, Bridgewater was established in 1856, and has a population of 1,662 souls.  It is a popular weekend getaway for wealthy New Yorkers.  My feeling is that this is not uncommon for towns

Number eight in my quest to visit every town in CT is Eastford. Located in Windham County, Eastford was established in 1847.  It has a population of 1,649, and a land area of 28.89 miles. Eastford was creatively named for its location East of Ashford, from which it broke off.

My goal is to visit every small town in CT.  Today I visited Norfolk. Established in 1758, with a population of only 1,588, Norfolk is Connecticut’s seventh smallest town by population.  However, with an area of 45.31 square miles, it is larger in size than Bridgeport and Hartford combined. For
