A charming downtown district in a historic setting

Urban Suburban University Public Transit Small Business Historic

The heart of Danbury, Downtown is the proud home to Western Connecticut State University, the Danbury Railroad Museum, and the Danbury Music Centre. Named after Danbury in Essex, England, this town’s downtown district offers a charming, historic vibe. Danbury is a quiet town, but residents appreciate the urban amenities that Downtown has to offer, from local restaurants and specialty shops to public transit stops and historic attractions. Downtown Danbury sits just outside of Interstate 84 nearing the Connecticut-New York state line. Residents who wish to travel into New York City can easily do so, seeing as it’s located approximately 50 miles southwest of town. Downtown Danbury offers easy access to Danbury Fair, Danbury Municipal Airport, and Candlewood Lake.
