Weston
has been designated “Best Small Town” in Connecticut for several years. It is a
unique town that derives its beautiful rural atmosphere from natural beauty that
has been protected by excellent town planning that cherishes “open space” and
2-acre zoning. Approximately one-third of the town is dedicated to open space in
perpetuity. Weston has retained its rural character even through it is only
approximately an hour from Manhattan; an easy commute via the Merritt Parkway,
I-95 or Metro-North trains.
The small commercial center of Weston is conveniently located to all the
schools, Town Hall, Weston Public Library, Weston Police and Volunteer Fire
Departments and various churches.
Weston’s school system was rated, in 2005, as the best in Connecticut for
similar size towns. The school system recently completed an $80 million
expansion. It is unique in that all of the schools are conveniently located on
one campus.
