Lake Candlewood dominates the northern landscape, its complex shoreline defined by numerous residential developments and points like Wildmans Landing and Candlewood Shores. This 2012 survey illustrates the transition from the lakeside communities of New Fairfield and Brookfield to the dense urban center of Danbury. The city's industrial and transportation history is anchored by the Danbury Railroad Museum and the Danbury Municipal Airport near the former Danbury Fairgrounds. Higher ground such as Bear Mountain and Beaver Brook Mountain provides contrast to the busy corridors of Germantown and Beaverbrook. Educational and civic life is centered around the campuses of Western Connecticut State University, while several burial grounds, including Wooster Cemetery and Saint Peters Cem, offer significant genealogical data for the region.
