When
accessing Marlborough from
Route 2 or Route 66, you’ll
find yourself entering a gem
of a town surrounded by the
tranquil waters of Lake
Terramuggus, fish-laden
streams, and a number of
walking trails. There are
thriving local businesses,
lovely neighborhoods, Blish
Park, and we are proud to
say, a single traffic
light. Marlborough is a
community that aims to
enhance the lives of its
residents, balancing their
needs with the promise of a
strong future.

Marlborough
– A Desirable Place to Live and Work
Our town is
home to 6094 residents who enjoy a
variety of neighborhood settings,
ranging from newly built
developments to established streets
lined with trees and stone walls to
lovely, winding roads that give the
town a touch of rural charm. Travel
the streets of our town, and you’ll
understand why our residents have
settled here: not far from Hartford
and several other larger cites, you
retreat into a haven that cares
about the needs of its residents,
provides access to shopping and
recreational activities, and celebrates a number of faith
communities. Marlborough also hosts
a variety of businesses, many of
which are members of the
Marlborough
Business Association.
Whether you live in Marlborough or
you work here, you know that you’ve
settled in an established,
scenically beautiful and progressive
town that truly cares about both its
residents and its business owners.
Marlborough
– A Community that Cares
The types of
services that are available in our
town say a great deal about what we
value. First and foremost,
Marlborough values its residents,
from its youngest to its oldest, and
is fully committed to meeting their
needs. Some particular sources of
pride for Marlborough are the
Elmer
Thines-Mary Hall Elementary School,
the
Richmond Memorial Library,
the
Marlborough Arts Center and Museum,
the Senior
Center,
Marlborough
Health Care and Rehabilitation,
and
Middlesex Emergency Care.
Also, our residents have access to
the premier services of
Andover,
Hebron and Marlborough Youth
Services (AHM), an
organization that focuses on the
well-being of youth and families. We
are also home to a local Food Bank
created to help those residents in
need. Many of the services mentioned
are supported by volunteers, who
behind the scenes bring the values
of our community to life. We are
also home to a stellar volunteer
Fire
Department and in-town
residential
Police. Marlborough is truly
a town supported by its people and
for its people, and we are proud of
all we have to offer.
