Ridgefield Connecticut is an old New England town that has been updated for the twenty first century. With a strong single family and growing condominium market, an active arts community, the influx of new families and the many lakes, parks and recreation facilities Ridgefield offers country sophistication and a perfect place to raise your kids.

Ridgefield is one of the most appealing towns in Fairfield County as evidenced by its speedy population growth. Since the 1950s it has gone from about 4,000 to over 24,000. The reasons are apparent, a cozy rural atmosphere ideal for family living coupled with easy access to major commercial centers and business.

The town's Main Street is a charming historic village lined with stately mansions and interesting shops. Neighborhoods feature attractive single-family homes in a wide variety of styles and sizes including updated colonials, traditional ranches and more contemporary designs. Attractive condominium communities are nicely integrated into the surrounding landscape, and a selection of waterfront properties can be found along the shores of many pristine lakes in town.

An active arts community promotes developing artists and groups through the Ridgefield Arts Council. Activities include the creation and promotion of town cultural events and schedules, and maintaining liaisons with other local town cultural organizations.

Lake Mamanasco, Lake Wind Wing and Pierrepont State Park offer fishing, swimming and boating. Ice skating including lessons and league hockey are available at the Skating Center and an 18-hole public golf course is popular with local golfers.
