Fairfield County is located in the southwestern part of the state of Connecticut and is known for its natural beauty, picturesque landscapes, and coastal communities. It is one of the four oldest counties in Connecticut, established on May 10, 1666, along with Hartford, New Haven, and New London.

The history of Fairfield County can be traced back to the 17th century when Native American tribes like the Pequot, Paugussett, and Wappinger inhabited the region. European settlement began in the 1630s when English settlers from the Massachusetts Bay Colony arrived in the area, establishing towns like Fairfield, Stratford, and Norwalk.

During the Revolutionary War, Gen. Israel Putnam and the Continental Army fought against the British in Fairfield County. The infamous "Burning of Fairfield" in 1779 saw the British army ruthlessly destroy the town, displacing many residents. The county played a role in the Underground Railroad during the 19th century and was a prominent industrial center during the early 20th century with thriving textile, gunpowder, and hat manufacturing industries.

Today, Fairfield County is a hub of economic activity and is known for its high quality of life. It is home to major corporations and institutions such as Yale University, University of Bridgeport, and Fairfield University. It boasts affluent suburbs, including Greenwich, Westport, and New Canaan.

Fun Fact: There is a unique geological feature found in Fairfield County known as the Connecticut Serpentinite Belt. It is a narrow strip of greenstone and serpentinite rock that stretches from Greenwich in the southwest to Wilton in the northeast. This formation, composed of metamorphic rock, is part of the continental crust and has origins dating back hundreds of millions of years.
