Orange, Connecticut is located just west of New Haven, and was once owned by the Paugusset Indians. In 1639, The Rev. Peter Prudden purchased the land from the Indians for six coats, ten blankets, one kettle, twelve hatchets, twelve hoes, two dozen knives and a dozen small mirrors. Orange remained a simple farming community until the mid-1940's when postwar residential construction began.
Proper zoning foresight has let Orange develop into an open, well-planned residential community which retains the New England simplicity of which the residents are proud. Orange is a desirable town in which to live as evidenced by the above-average school system, a wide range of community services and easy access to urban areas of the state using Routes 1, 15, 34 and I-95, all of which traverse the town of Orange.

CONNECTICUT: A STATE OF CONTRASTS
Poised at the edge of America's largest city yet firmly rooted in the spirit and traditions of rural New England, bridging the innovations of the nation's finest educational and research institutions with nearly four centuries of historical perspective, the tiny state of Connecticut offers a wealth of cultural opportunities and resources to rival any other, regardless of physical size.
A major draw for new residents and visitors alike is Connecticut's rich and varied landscape, both natural and man-made. The pristine, sand-swept beaches of the coast in the south are thrown into sharp relief by the hilly, forested country of the state's northern reaches. Historic village greens and colonial-era steeples give way to office towers and bustling city streets. The classic brownstones and neo-gothic architecture of Connecticut's oldest educational and governmental institutions stand alongside the sleek modernist structures of today. Connecticut's variegated physical appearance reflects its multifaceted identity and its diversity of spirit.
A leader in higher education, industry and contemporary thought, Connecticut draws on the lessons of its rich and varied history to confront the challenges of the future. Firmly rooted in rural New England traditions yet cosmopolitan in its outlook, Connecticut combines the sophistication of the city with the close-knit community spirit and values of the countryside. A perfect destination for professionals seeking a rural atmosphere with easy access to the city, Connecticut offers the best of city and country for residents and visitors alike.
