2018 Map of Danbury

About this map

Lake Candlewood and its complex shoreline dominate the northern landscape, where residential enclaves like Candlewood Isle and Candlewood Shores reflect the region's long-standing draw for lakeside living. To the south, the city of Danbury serves as a dense urban anchor, characterized by a concentration of civic and educational landmarks such as Western Connecticut State University and historical grounds like Wooster Cemetery. The map illustrates a high degree of development transition from the historic center of Brookfield Center to the newer neighborhoods of Hayestown and Germantown. Water management and transportation are central themes, seen in the Margerie Lake Reservoir and the convergence of I-84 and Us-7, which facilitate movement through the varied terrain between Beaver Brook Mountain and the Still River.
