About Monroe

Monroe is a somewhat small coastal town (ie. on the ocean or tidally-influenced rivers) located in the state of Connecticut. With a population of 19,247 people and three constituent neighborhoods, Monroe is the 54th largest community in Connecticut.

Monroe is a decidedly white-collar town, with fully 85.40% of the workforce employed in white-collar jobs, well above the national average. Overall, Monroe is a town of professionals, sales and office workers, and managers. There are especially a lot of people living in Monroe who work in management occupations (18.59%), office and administrative support jobs (14.78%), and sales jobs (10.36%).

Also of interest is that Monroe has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

In addition, Monroe is home to many people who could be described as "urban sophisticates." Urban sophisticates are educated, wealthy, executives and professionals, who have urbane tastes in books, food, and travel, whether they actually live in a big city, or choose to reside in a small town. In big or medium-sized cities, urban sophisticates tend to frequent art institutions such as opera, symphonies, ballet, live theatre, and museums.

Monroe is a good choice for families with children because of several factors. Many other families with children live here, making it a place where both parents and children are more likely to develop social ties with other families. The town's good public school district and large population of college-educated adults provide an environment conducive to academic success. Many people own their own single-family homes, providing areas for children to play and stability in the community. Finally, Monroe's overall crime rate is lower than average for the country.

The town is also nautical, which means that parts of Monroe are somewhat historic and bounded by the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and tidal rivers. Such areas are often places that visitors and locals go for waterfront activities or taking in the scenery.

One downside of living in Monroe, however, is that residents on average have to contend with a long commute, spending on average 31.19 minutes every day commuting to work.

For most residents of Monroe, getting to work requires a car. In fact, 97.4% of people in Monroe drive alone to work on most days, making Monroe a very car-oriented town. In general, car-oriented communities tend to emphasize streets, highways, and ease of parking, often to the detriment of walkability. Strip centers are a feature of Monroe's landscape.

Monroe Information and Demographics

The education level of Monroe citizens is very high relative to the national average among all cities (14.96%): 41.28% of adults in Monroe have a bachelor's degree or even advanced degree.

The per capita income in Monroe in 2000 was $34,161, which is upper middle income relative to Connecticut, and wealthy relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $136,644 for a family of four. However, Monroe contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.

The people who call Monroe home come from a variety of different races and ancestries. The most prevalent race in Monroe is White, followed by African-American. Important ancestries of people in Monroe include Italian, Irish, German, Polish, English, Hungarian, and Portuguese.

The most common language spoken in Monroe is English.
