Is Pompton Plains worth moving to in 2026?
With a population of 10,766, Pompton Plains is a small town. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.

Bought a house here in 2022 and it's exactly what I was looking for. Property values have gone down slightly since then.

I've lived in Highland for about 10 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it was the best decision I ever made. When I first moved here from Portland, I was surprised by cultural scene. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Active local events and festivals
- The community vibe scene is improving
The downsides:
- Limited public transit options
- Limited high-paying job options
Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for young professionals. Definitely worth checking out..

I've lived in Old Town for about 8 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I have mixed feelings honestly. When I first moved here from LA, I was surprised by food scene. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Affordable housing options
- Diverse dining options
- The weather scene is challenging
The downsides:
- Limited entertainment options
- Far from beaches/mountains
Overall I'd rate it 8/10 for singles. Give it a chance - it might surprise you..

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are better than expected, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.
