The city is divided into five school districts, which are colored yellow, bright pink or light pink, with public spaces appearing in green. Fort Trumbull, cemeteries, parks, the town square, the court house, schools and churches are all colored green. The New London Northern Railroad and Shore Line Railroad run through the city.
