The houses in New Haven County
The 25 towns we serve in New Haven County hold about 340,000 homes. About 69% were built before 1980 and 23% before 1940, and about 54% are single-family detached houses.
The oldest housing is in New Haven (40% pre-1940), Ansonia (35% pre-1940), Waterbury (31% pre-1940), where plaster and old roofing make loads heavy, so the 20 yard is the usual pick. The largest homes are in Woodbridge (8.2 rooms median), Madison (7.6 rooms median), Bethany (7.5 rooms median), where a full cleanout usually means a 30 yard.
