City - Hartford

Hartford enjoys a special place in American history as one of the most important industrial centers in New England for well over a century. Today, the insurance industry has taken over as the main pillar of Hartford’s business sector, but the city remains as vibrant and energetic as it ever was.

Many know Hartford as a college town, with the University of Hartford, Trinity College, and several UConn facilities operating in the city. Stimulate your brain by taking in a theater production, art gallery, or one of the newest exhibitions at the Connecticut Science Museum. Concerts at The Meadows and basketball games at Hartford XL Arena are always crowd-pleasers, and the local nightlife scene is brimming with bars, nightclubs, and live music venues.

The city is full of enormous public parks, including the lush grounds surrounding the state capitol building and Riverside Park on the banks of the Connecticut River.
