Ridgefield, CT

Ridgefield is a Fairfield County town in the foothills of the Berkshire Mountains, near the New York border. It has deep Revolutionary War history, including the 1777 Battle of Ridgefield, and a strong cultural scene for a town its size. The Ridgefield Playhouse, local arts groups, and pre-professional performance companies add to that civic life. Ridgefield feels polished and historic, with a handsome Main Street, wooded neighborhoods, schools, and a setting that is both suburban and distinctly New England.
