About Orange

Orange is a somewhat small coastal town (ie. on the ocean or tidally-influenced rivers) located in the state of Connecticut. With a population of 13,233 people and four constituent neighborhoods, Orange is the 79th largest community in Connecticut.

Orange is a decidedly white-collar town, with fully 88.28% of the workforce employed in white-collar jobs, well above the national average. Overall, Orange is a town of professionals, sales and office workers, and managers. There are especially a lot of people living in Orange who work in management occupations (14.15%), office and administrative support jobs (13.28%), and sales jobs (12.80%).

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

In addition, Orange 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.

Because of many things, Orange is a very good place for families to consider. With an enviable combination of good schools, low crime, college-educated neighbors who tend to support education because of their own experiences, and a high rate of home ownership in predominantly single-family properties, Orange really has some of the features that families look for when choosing a good community to raise children. Is Orange perfect? Of course not, and if you like frenetic night life, it will be far from your cup of tea. But overall this is a solid community, with many things to recommend it as a family-friendly place to live.

One of the nice things about Orange is that is it nautical, meaning that parts of the town are somewhat historic and on the ocean, or touch tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and tidal rivers. Because of this, visitors and locals will often go to these areas to take in the scenery or to enjoy waterfront activities.

Orange is a very car-oriented town. This is because most people - 98.4% - drive by car to work every day, and few people choose alternative modes of transportation, such as public transit, cycling, or walking. In general, car-oriented communities have a layout that emphasizes streets, highways, and ease of parking, and sometimes this can be to the detriment of human-scale priorities such as walkability alongside roads, and public spaces. For example, strip malls are something you will find in Orange.

As is often the case in a small town, Orange doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
