New economic growth led by the region’s largest employer, General Dynamics Electric Boat, is creating the need for new housing in Groton. The Town of Groton worked with consulting firm Camoin 310 to conduct a Housing Market Study to evaluate future housing demand and development potential.
This contrasts with recent years when this region experienced population loss and a lack of housing development. In that timeframe, local residents have aged, proceeding through life stages from raising families to empty nesting, shrinking the average household size.
