Newington, Residential suburb in Hartford County, Connecticut.
Newington spans 13.1 square miles of land with two small ponds and multiple streams connecting to neighboring Hartford and West Hartford regions.
The land originated as Pipestave Swamp in Wethersfield before 132 dwellings and 130 farms formed an independent town in 1871.
The Lucy Robbins Welles Library stands as the central educational institution, offering resources and programs to 30,527 residents since its establishment in 1939.
The town operates under a Council-Manager system with nine elected officials determining policies and an appointed manager handling administrative duties.
