East Hampton, Connecticut

Population: 13,352

Located in Middlesex County

From any angle, East Hampton is full of promise. Approaching our town from the east or west, there is a skyscape of spires and wooded hills hovering over our state's largest lake, Lake Pocotopaug. Streams and valleys color a landscape etched by the Salmon River near our town's southern boundary and the Connecticut River on our town's western boundary. To the many who live here, East Hampton is a natural paradise of patched hills, water, and sky.

East Hampton's natural beauty is enhanced by its strengths as a community. "Growing and Prospering Since 1767", our Town motto, explains our history but also serves as an invitation to families and businesses who share our long-standing commitments to quality of life and planned growth.

Located 25 miles from Hartford and equidistant from New York and Boston, East Hampton retains its rural-suburban character. We offer families a fine school system and a full-range of educational, recreational, social, civic, and community-based programs and services. Business growth and development are supported by a full-time staff serving the Planning, Zoning, and Health services areas and an active, appointed Economic Development Commission committed to shaping a rich, diverse, and robust local economy.

As East Hampton continues along the path of growth and prosperity now more than 200 years-old, we invite families and businesses to join us. Our commitment to opportunity defines our Town and makes East Hampton a destination at which history is honored and the present and future embraced.
