Orange, CT is Perfect, Picturesque Living! 5 rating By Anonymous ( May 23, 2018) You can come to Orange, Connecticut and visit Splat Art Studios for some art classes, and kids' activities, you can head out to the Adventure Park at the Discovery Museum for a great afternoon of fun and exploration, you can take in Monster Mini Golf and the Peabody Museum of Nat ...Read More ural History. And as much fun as all of those activities are, you will still not even begin to scratch the surface of what an awesome place Orange, Connecticut is! One of the best areas in the state for sure.

My family has been living in Orange since the early 1980s. We have gotten married here, raised children here, and will raise grandchildren here. We love the scenery, like something out of a watercolor painting. We love the fact that there is an almost non-existent crime rate. We are very happy with the excellent ratings our schools consistently receive. But what makes Orange the best place to live are her people. Everyone here looks out for one another and treats each other like family. We are blessed to have found such an amazing place to call home! Read Less
