THE STORY OF TRUMBULL
Trumbull was incorporated in 1797, and is a residential community with
New England charm. The town has an active and community minded
population of just over 35,000 and over 1800 acres of park land with numerous
recreational facilities. Residents can enjoy the 2 outdoor pools, 1 indoor pool,
18 hole golf course, numerous tennis courts, ball fields, BMX track, amphitheater,
walking and biking trails, playgrounds etc. located throughout the town. Trumbull
residents are also able to purchase a beach sticker for the Fairfield or Stratford
Beaches at a nominal cost. Shopping is available at the Westfield Shopping
town Mall in Trumbull with lead stores of Lord and Taylor, Macy's, Target , Gap,
Abercrombie, Talbots, J Crew, Brookstone … just a slice of the over 200 offered.
The town of Trumbull is located just a few miles inland off the coast of Long
Island Sound in the mid-eastern section of Fairfield County. One of the many fine
qualities the town of Trumbull has to offer is a very well planned mix of old and
new, of residential and commercial, and of town and city. One of the best things
about Trumbull, with the exception of the impressive public school reputation,
is that you can feel a true sense of the privacy offered in the rolling suburban
neighborhoods, but always remain only five minutes away from everything!
A large portion of the working population is professional and
managerial. modern zoning requirements accommodate the needs
of research and development firms and light industry. While
allowing for innovative residential development, and 97%
of housing is single-family dwellings. Residential lots are
1/2 acre to 1 acre parcels unless predated by zoning.
Housing costs range from approximately $280,000
to over $1,500,000.
