THE STORY

OF DANBURY Danbury is a thriving and diverse city located
in western Connecticut that focuses on
preserving and providing a superior quality of
life for residents. Danbury’s excellent
transportation connections to both New
England and New York make it a hidden gem
within Connecticut. With convenient access
via Metro-North, I-84, and US-7, Danbury
offers seamless travel options.
Despite its proximity to these bustling
metropolitan areas, Danbury has successfully
preserved its small-town charm.

Known as the “Hat City,” Danbury was the
center of the American hat industry between
the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
Although Danbury has moved on from
producing hats, the local businesses continue
to keep history alive by referencing the hatting
industry. Today, Danbury has expanded to
producing electronics, machinery, and
furniture.

Danbury takes pride in its diverse economy,
which is made up of several major industries, a
vibrant cultural scene, and a strong sense of
community. Not only is Danbury positioned
among the foothills of the Berkshire
Mountains, but it's home to the southern part
of Connecticut's largest lake, Candlewood
Lake. Danbury boasts a serene environment
with an abundance of outdoor activities.

From festivals to food trucks to farmers
markets, there is always something exciting
happening in this city. The town government
is responsive, innovative, and invested in
making Danbury a great place to live for all
residents. Coupled with its wide range of
amenities and welcoming atmosphere,
Danbury truly stands out as a unique and
special place to call home.
