What Newington is like for active adults
Newington is a suburban town near Hartford, the state capital.  The country west and north of town grows quite rural and quaint.  Because the area is not as crowded as nearby Hartford or New Haven, its lower prices and lower key lifestyle has made it a popular place for active adults looking to retire.
