Long Ridge is a rural wooded neighborhood on the outskirts of Danbury, Fairfield County, Connecticut. The neighborhood's main thoroughfare, aptly named Long Ridge Road, is the only designated scenic road in the City of Danbury.[1] Dedicated to the preservation of the district, members of the community formed the Long Ridge Neighborhood Preservation Association in 2015.[2]
Perhaps the most notable feature of the area is the Long Ridge Library. The former one-room schoolhouse, which once served the students in the district, was given by the town of Danbury in 1922.[3] Also significant to the area is the Long Ridge United Methodist Church, built in 1840.[4]
