Response Area

The City of Milford is a coastal community in the most Southwestern part of New Haven County in the State of Connecticut.  The current population is just under 55,000 residents.

The Milford Fire Department's response area covers just over 26 square miles and 20 miles of coastline, mostly on the Long Island Sound and parts of the Housatonic River that borders the length of the Westside of the City. This shoreline accounts for the single most water response area in the entire State of Connecticut.  In addition to the coastline, Interstate I-95, US Route 1 and Metro North Rail Lines dissect the City from West to East, border to border.
