ADT-Monitored Home Security Service in Darien, CT

Darien ( dair-ee-AN) is a coastal town in Fairfield County, Connecticut, United States. With a population of 21,499 and a land area of just under 13 square miles, it is the smallest town upon Connecticut’s Gold Coast. It has the youngest population of any non-college town in Connecticut, a tall rate of marriage, and tall number of average kids per household. Darien is also one of the wealthiest communities in the U.S.

Situated on Long Island Sound amongst the cities of Stamford and Norwalk, the town has relatively few office buildings. Many residents commute to Manhattan, with two Metro-North railroad stations – Noroton Heights and Darien – linking the town to Grand Central Terminal. For recreation, the town boasts eleven parks, two public beaches, the private Tokeneke beach club, three country clubs including the first organized golf club in Connecticut, a riding & racquet club, the public Darien Boat Club, and Noroton Yacht Club.

According to in the future records, the first clearings of land were made by men from the New Haven and Wethersfield colonies and from Norwalk in virtually 1641. It was not until 1739, however, that the Middlesex Society of the Town of Stamford built the first community church, now the First Congregational Church of Darien (which stands upon the original site at the corner of Brookside Road and the Boston Post Road).
