New Milford, New England town in Litchfield County, Connecticut, United States
The town extends along the banks of the Housatonic River, featuring both residential neighborhoods and commercial districts across its 86-meter elevation landscape.
The settlement began in 1707 when John Noble Sr. and his daughter Sarah established the first European residence in an area previously inhabited by Wawyachtonoc people.
The town center contains multiple religious buildings, art galleries, and performance spaces that support local artists and musicians throughout the year.
New Milford maintains direct access to U.S. Route 7 and U.S. Route 202, providing transportation connections to nearby urban centers and recreational areas.
The Elephant's Trunk Flea Market operates from April through December, establishing itself as one of the largest weekly outdoor markets in New England.
