The housing stock is predominantly single-family homes, and the town has a quiet, residential character that contrasts with the urban density of Waterbury to the south.
For property professionals, Watertown is a moderate suburban market with the Taft School creating institutional presence and a residential stock that is more consistent and newer than the urban housing in neighboring Waterbury.
