Fairfield is located in Fairfield County, Connecticut.  It borders the city of Bridgeport and towns of Trumbull, Easton, Weston, and Westport along the Gold Coast of Connecticut.  Money magazine ranked Fairfield the 44th best place to live in the United States and the best place to live in Connecticut in September 2014.

Fairfield was one of the two principal settlements of the Connecticut Colony in southwestern Connecticut.

World War I  triggered an unprecedented economic boom in Bridgeport, which was the center of a large munitions industry at the time. The prosperity created a housing shortage in the city, and many of the workers looked to Fairfield to build their homes.

By the time of the Wall Street Crash of 1929, the population had increased to 17,000 from the 6,000 it had been just before the war. Even during the Depression, the town kept expanding.

The 1950s brought a wave of development to Fairfield with the opening of the Connecticut Turnpike, by the 1960s the town’s residential, suburban character was established.

Fairfield became the home of the corporate headquarters of General Electric (GE), one of the world’s largest companies. On May 8, 2017, GE relocated to Boston, Massachusetts.

Fairfield offers a sparse suburban feel with a lot of restaurants, coffee shops, and parks. The public schools are highly rated.
