Bethany is a small town in New Haven County, Connecticut. This little town is known for the fact that the Budweiser Clydesdale horses are cared for here so they will be ready for special events and parades. The town is only approximately 22 square miles and rural. Once upon a time was a part of Woodbridge. Bethany did not separate itself from Woodbridge until 1832, although it was settled in 1717. Today the town remains rural and remote, yet so close to urban areas that it allows for the best of both worlds.
Bethany may be found between State Route 63 and State Route 69, right between Midbury and New Haven. And, of the 160 towns and cities in Connecticut, a computer survey calculated that Bethany was the 22nd most attractive town to live in, based on a variety of factors like poverty and crime rates, high school graduates attending four year colleges, per capita income and taxes, mortality rate, and more.
