Welcome to Norwalk, Connecticut
Welcome to Norwalk, Connecticut County: Fairfield Population: 81,644 Square Miles: 36.3 Government: Mayor Distance to Major Cities: Boston: 151 miles Hartford: 61 miles New York City: 39 miles View of South Norwalk Welcome to Norwalk, CT a diverse city of seacoast commerce, education and industry that graces Long Island Sound. Seen by some as a sub- urb of New York, or indeed a suburb of Stamford, Norwalk is a vibrant, growing city. The sixth largest city in Connecticut and the third largest in Fairfield County, Norwalk attract families and singles who want to enjoy its quiet beauty while still being close to what the entire Gold Coast of Connecticut has to offer. Fishing and the farming of oysters has long been important to Norwalk, which was once nicknamed "Oyster Town." Each September, Norwalk holds its annual Oyster Festival at the Norwalk harbor, similar to many state fairs. Norwalk encompasses 36 square miles, of which nearly a third is water. Its neighborhoods range from brick apartment buildings to college dorms, old factory streets and transformed ware- house lofts, yacht havens and golf courses; its people represent nations and languages from all around the world. Indeed, about 25% of Norwalk residents were born in another country and have come here to make their home. The Norwalk public school system website provides translations to many languages, so the city's multinational population can access school information. Norwalk offers higher education with Norwalk Community College, Gibbs College and the University of Phoenix. South Norwalk still retains much of its industrial seaport character and important employment base, while the hub called SoNo" is being transformed into a true walking city with busy shops and lively restaurants. -

In areas where there are more impervious surfaces, such as parking lots, streets, and roofs, water from storms and even light rain can flow quickly and directly into a storm drain system. This water flow, called runoff, transports a wide variety of pollutants (such as sediments, excess nutrients, bacteria, and toxic man-made chemicals) into nearby streams, rivers, and the Harbor. This type of pollution, often difficult to control, is called Nonpoint Source Pollution (NSP). NSP can cause the destruction of fish and macroinvertebrate habitats, promote the growth of excessive and unwanted algal blooms that Infrastructure Pollution Sources Inputs contribute to hypoxia (low dissolved oxygen) Storm water pipe Oil Bacteria events in Long Island Sound, and introduce Sewer pipe Pet waste Nutrients dangerous chemicals into local waterways.
