Two distinct areas define this largely residential town that is home to about 9,000 residents: Central Woodbridge, which occupies the western section of town, and The Flats, its eastern portion. It has earned the distinction of being one of the wealthiest towns in Connecticut, and the site where the first sulfur match was invented in 1835. Residents take pride in Woodbridge’s history, which is evident throughout the charming Woodbridge Green Historic District and the Darling House Museum, both listed on the National Register of Historic Places. An active land trust oversees the protection and preservation of hundreds of acres of open space, a good portion of which is open to the public in the form of hiking trails and scenic areas.
