West Hartford is an affluent suburb located in Hartford County. Originally inhabited by the Wampanoag people, West Hartford was eventually established after breaking off from the Hartford Colony, which was founded by Reverend Thomas Hooker. West Hartford is adjacent to Hartford and borders numerous towns such as Bloomfield, Newington, Farmington and Avon. Large areas of the community have gone through significant transformations over the years, including The Blue Back Square area, which draws patrons seeking retail shopping, a movie theater, and a dining and nightlife experience. The town’s bustling downtown area, known as “The Center,” has been the community’s main hub since the late 17th century and is complemented by rural landscape to the west. Talcott Mountain is a popular hiking spot for those who enjoy some fresh air and recreation.
Westfarms Mall lies between West Hartford and Farmington, featuring over 160 stores including luxury stores like Louis Vuitton, Tiffany & Co., Brooks Brothers, Tory Burch and True Religion Brand Jeans.
