Trumbull is a beautiful, vital community set in the gentle hillside country that lies north of Bridgeport and the panoramic watershed of the Pequonnock River.  The community has experienced rapid growth in recent years, as newcomers have discovered the area’s quiet, suburban atmosphere with all the amenities and advantages of a larger metropolis.  In fact, Trumbull even provides expanded retail options for many of the smaller neighboring communities.  Most homes in Trumbull were constructed in the past 25 years, and the area has welcomed many handsome new residential develop-ments.  Recreational opportunities include an 18-hole golf course nestled in the scenic Tashua Recreation Area, recreational parks, tennis courts, athletic fields, hiking trails, swimming pools and natural swimming areas,  wilderness activities, a senior center, and private clubs.
