Welcome to Westport, CT

Culturally inclined and upscale in its overall atmosphere, the desirable community of Westport covers 33 square miles, including the Saugatuck River. With its sandy beaches, scenic shoreline, and inland woods, Westport is a former summer resort town that remained a center for artists while it evolved into a bedroom community for leading New York executives. Westport is unique, with its two business centers and a commercial corridor down its center. Main Street Downtown is renowned for its upscale shopping and wide variety of unique shops. Along the Post Road, anything can be found, from antique automobiles to hardware and lumber. The people make Westport unique. It is a diverse town made up of many nationalities and all walks of life. As an environmentally aware community, it was one of the first to ban plastic bags.

About The Town

Interactive Guide - For more info and to visit the website, click the direct links below.

One of the major reasons for the town's cosmopolitan nature is that Westporters have a real sense of place. 

All of the town's agencies – from the Office of the First Selectman to the Planning and Zoning Commission, the Recreation and Conservation Commissions, to the Representative Town Meeting (the town's grass roots democratic representatives) – collectively work together in the town's best interests. People are often outspoken and they publicly differ, but when a decision is made they come together as a whole for the good of the community. The spirit and care with which people tend to this town, whether as elected officials or as volunteers, is what gives Westport its very heart and soul.

Westport has become one of the most affluent suburbs in America, culturally rich, filled with a blend of old Yankee farmers, academics, and professionals from all fields, reflecting its international flavor. Yet, it still retains the old New England small-town charm on many of its streets.

I was taken out of Manhattan kicking and screaming because the Company that I was working with was moving to Connecticut. My whole life turned for the better once I embraced the move to Westport. I bought a house, had a career change to Real Estate and got married! 

Let me help you with your transition whether it is from the City, from an Apartment/Condo or if you are downsizing - I have been there and can relate to what you are going through!
