Durham, Connecticut

Population: 6,010
Located in Middlesex County

The town of Durham in south central Connecticut, covers 23.3 square miles and is home to some 6,010 residents. The town was originally settled in 1699. A plantation subsequently developed and was named in 1704. The town was incorporated in 1708. None but light manufacturing has ever been carried out in the town. There are skiing facilities at nearby Powder Ridge.

Little has disturbed Durham's historic setting, and Main Street is still lined with fine 18th and 19th century homes under spreading trees. The village green separates traffic from a more leisurely paced life, and it provides a fine setting for the town hall.

The town bustles when the annual Durham Agricultural Fair is held in late September. One of the largest and oldest major fairs in New England, exhibitors and visitors can enjoy old time horse pulls, rides, 4H displays and contests to challenge a variety of skills.
