The houses in Fairfield County
The 19 towns we serve in Fairfield County hold about 342,000 homes. About 67% were built before 1980 and 19% before 1940, and about 54% are single-family detached houses.
The oldest housing is in Bridgeport (32% pre-1940), Darien (27% pre-1940), Stratford (20% pre-1940), where plaster and old roofing make loads heavy, so the 20 yard is the usual pick. The largest homes are in Westport (10 or more rooms median), Weston (10 or more rooms median), New Canaan (10 or more rooms median), where a full cleanout usually means a 30 yard.
