Windham, CTInc. 1693
Windham is a small city in northeastern Connecticut, with the village of Willimantic — home to Eastern Connecticut State University — as its primary center. The Willimantic River and its mills shaped the city's industrial heritage, and the dense downtown reflects that history. The "Thread City" nickname references the American Thread Company, which was Willimantic's largest employer.
For property professionals, Windham is an affordable market with a dense, older housing stock near the university and downtown, and more suburban development in the outlying areas. The university creates rental demand, and the river brings flood zone considerations.
