Welcome to Connecticut

Connecticut, the fifth state to join the Union, ratified the U.S. Constitution on January 9, 1788. As of the latest 2024 data from the U.S. Small Business Administration, the state is home to an estimated 365,824 small businesses, which account for 99.4% of all businesses and employ 678,339 people—representing 47.0% of Connecticut's total workforce. Influenced by its extensive coastline exceeding 600 miles along Long Island Sound, Connecticut experiences a temperate climate transitioning between humid continental and humid subtropical zones, featuring warm, humid summers and moderately cold winters with even precipitation throughout the year. This coastal geography has cultivated a strong maritime tradition, from early colonial shipbuilding and whaling to modern naval contributions and leisure boating.
