Conveniently located on major highways between New York City and Boston, it offers an ideal location for both living and working.
The town’s picturesque countryside offers stunning autumn foliage and lush spring greenery, among many other scenic views.
With a lively events calendar and a diverse food scene, Newtown attracts a wide variety of visitors. Local businesses contribute to the town’s nostalgic atmosphere, while its rich cultural scene hosts artists, writers, and musicians.
The business environment is thriving, supported by both locals and tourists. From the nationally acclaimed Ferris Acres Creamery (ranked among the top 30 ice cream shops in America) to Edmond Town Hall, a historic venue that has been transformed into a theater, and the town's beautiful hiking trails, Newtown has something for everyone.
