The town of West Hartford was incorporated in 1854. It is a large suburban community with all the cultural and commercial amenities of a metropolitan center and yet still has the charms of a small town. A wealth of diverse lifestyle possibilities and recreational and social activities make West Hartford an excellent choice for enjoyable family living. 

An array of neighborhoods features some of the loveliest homes in Connecticut. Large stately houses, charming colonials, turn of the century Victorians, quaint capes, single story ranches, bungalows and impressive contemporaries dot the landscape and grace the tree-lined avenues of town. A variety of apartment complexes, condominium communities and pleasant multi-families are also found in town.

Home is where the heart is… and community is something we share.    The character, culture, and amenities of our community uniquely distinguish the Central Connecticut region. I believe it is important to pitch in and help preserve these qualities.
