2024 Map of Southbury

About this map

The Housatonic River carves a deep valley through this corner of New Haven County, defining the boundary between established hillside settlements and modern infrastructure. To the north, the planned community of Heritage Village and the town of Southbury sit along the Pomperaug River corridor, where Interstate 84 now cuts through the landscape. The map reveals a high concentration of small family-named hills like Ichabod Hill and Bowers Hill, indicating the area's long-standing agricultural and residential partition. Further south, the river widens near Stevenson and East Village, while the eastern terrain transitions into the community of Quaker Farms. For genealogists, several burial grounds are documented, including Pine Hill Cem and Brookside Cem. The presence of the Waterbury-Oxford Airport on the eastern edge marks the continued evolution of transport in this historic river valley.
