What is FAIRFIELD COUNTY?
I don't understand half of the garbage written up here. Yes Fairfield County has some rich towns including Greenwich, Westport, New Canaan, etc.... but if you're not in one of those huge town you're not surround by million dollar homes or anything close to that. Sure we have alot of preppy kids who know how to use daddy's credit card better than they can spell their name, but we also have kids that have had jobs since they were 15, had to buy their own car, pay their own insurance like any other kid in any other county. Just because there are SOME towns that are wealthy doesn't mean everyone here is stuck up, snobby, and rich. We work hard for what we have and the majority of us don't think of ourselves as better than anyone else because we know just how hard our parents work and we do the same. Don't stereotype everyone in Fairfield County because of a few rich town where you can find a stereo-typical rich snob.
Parts of Fairfield County:
Greenwich, Westport, New Canaan, Etc = Lots of Money
Bridgeport, Norwalk, Stratford, Shelton, Trumbull, etc = Places where people still work hard to make a living, pay their mortgage, teach their children the value of the a dollar and make them work to have their own car. Sure there are some nicer homes in any town, but it's no different than any other town anywhere else

FAIRFIELD COUNTY - what is it?
The real deal about fairfield county is that it is the underage drinking capitol of the world because there is nothing else to do for a minor at night. And since most towns like Wilton, Westport, and Darien are extraordinarly rich, the mommy's and daddy's all go away for constant house parties. As for Norwalk, it is not the scum of the earth, but actually has some of the largest mansions and not to mention Stew Leonards and his fortune (By the way he belongs to a country club in Norwalk). The only thing is that Norwalk, Stamford, and Bridgeport are the only urban towns and the largest in the county. Thus there bound to have some minority, poorer population that doesnt exist in the "beautify villas of Greenwich and New Cannan." We are also not the "ghetto" as all of you claim norwalk to be. Just because not every house doesn't cost over a mill and has their own yacht does not mean were poor. Norwalk is at least what the actual real world looks outside of Fairfield Prep and your Range Rovers. Another thing that's great is that the preps are actually scared of Norwalkers. If you have long hair or wear a t-shirt and walk around Westport, don't be surprised to send kids running. Don't worry, if your from any of the rich white towns, its not your fault your so smug and rude. It's just your natural surroundings, so have fun when Daddy's credit card runs out. FC is also a great place to go insect hunting.
The WASP population of Fairfield County has soared to astronomical proportions.
What does "FAIRFIELD COUNTY" mean?
Connecticut's southwesternmost county, really more a part of the New York suburbs than New England. Boasts the second-highest per-capita income in the country (after Teton Co., Wyoming, vacationland of the rich & famous) and is home to some towns famous for their ritziness (Greenwich, Westport, Darien, New Canaan). Contrary to the F.C.'s stereotype as a very rich, white, homogenous place, Fairfield County is home to several depressed urban areas (Bridgeport, Stamford, South Norwalk). In addition, the northern part of the county (Bethel, New Fairfield, Brookfield, Monroe, etc.), while still "suburban", is much more indicative of the rest of the country, largely free of the pretentious old-money attitude of the wealthy coastal towns. Many inhabitants of the southern part of the county commute to New York City; most of the rest of the county's population works either in Stamford or in one of the large office parks scattered around Greenwich, Wilton, Westport, Fairfield, Norwalk, Danbury, etc. Great public schools. Out-of-control home prices.
We wanted to move to Fairfield County, but land was just too expensive. We moved just outside of Hartford instead and are doing just fine, thank you.

FAIRFIELD COUNTY - meaning
"The Best Place on Earth"
Fairfield County is in southwestern CT, and gives the state its rep for being rich rich rich. It contains some of the wealthiest towns and communities and the country, and some of the wealthiest and snobbiest people. However, those who live here love it, the F.C. isn't a place...its a lifestyle. Think yacht clubs, country clubs, beach clubs....prep schools, the best public schools....$$$
THE F.C. = $$$ and is the place to be...
FAIRFIELD COUNTY - definition
Very wealthy county, a regular contender for the the title of richest county in America. Yes, there are a lot of rich stuck ups in towns such as Westport, Greenwich, etc, but contrary to popular opinions not everyone from fairfield county wipes their ass with 20 dollar bills. Many people, even in towns like Fairfield and Danbury and especially in South Norwalk and Bridgeport, work hard and don't live like movie stars. And also, stop pretending you'll get pulled over in Fairfield or Westport or basically anywhere else in Fairfield county because you're from Bridgeport. If you get pulled over or arrested, its because you're doing something stupid...not because we're haters.
The only way anyone has ever gotten money is by working for it. Don't just bitch about how we have more money then you. Get off your ass and work.
FAIRFIELD COUNTY - slang
im lovin how no one writing definitions for this place live in it. First off, it is pretty rich, i'll give u that, but that doesnt mean that everyone's extremely stuck up. So what if my family owns auddis and a lexus, doesnt mean im goin to go around showing off the fact that i do. But sadly, we do have a few people who are like that, but no one likes them anyway. And there's also a good number of kids who are not popped collar stuck up preppy kids. And yes, houses are ridiculously overpriced around here, especially around the beaches. Also, we do have quite a lot of underage drinking, but when u have easy access, y not.
Always a drinking party somewhere, and if not, drive somewhere else to find one.
FAIRFIELD COUNTY
Fairfield County is the richest part of the East Coast. There are those extremely rich towns such as Greenwich, New Canaan, Darien, Wilton, and Westport, but Norwalk, Bridgeport, Stamford, Newtown, Easton, and Redding aren't as low as people make them seem. Norwalk and Bridgeport are NOT ghetto. Yes, they have their share of violence, but every town does. Greenwich and New Canaan are not just full of snobs either. Money does not make people who they are. There are a select few that think it does, but that is not what Fairfield County is about. It is a very diverse county and Norwalk, Bridgeport, and Stamford hold credit for most of that. The "rich bitches" can think whatever they want to think, but when it comes down to it Fairfield County is also full of the most fake people in the East Coast as well.
Unlike Wilton and Greenwich, Norwalk consists of the most real, down-to-earth people in Fairfield County.

FAIRFIELD COUNTY
The underage drinking and weed capitol of the country. Where Dispatch and Dave Matthews are the anthems, and pink polos, lobsters and Lilly are the uniform. Every kid attempts to be ghetto at one point or another but Norwalk is the last place you will ever find them. FCers as freshman can drink college seniors under the table.
