New London County, Connecticut
New London County occupies Connecticut’s southeast corner, where the Thames River meets the Sound. It’s submarine country, with the Naval base keeping things shipshape. Mystic Seaport brings in the tourists, while Mohegan Sun lights up the night.
You’ll find quiet farm towns not far from bustling marinas. New London County has a nautical vibe with a side of rural charm. It’s where you can get both salt air and hay fever on the same day.
The county is a bit of a chameleon. It’s part maritime New England, part casino glitz, and part quiet countryside. Best of all worlds and it sounds like a lot of fun to me.
