It still retains the old New England small-town charm though, especially in the lovely downtown area along the Saugatuck River and the historical neighborhoods in town.
Long known for its’ artistic community, Westport continues to attract artists and people who care about keeping it special. The town’s schools are consistently ranked as some of the best in the state.
