Main Street’s anchors include the Griswold Inn, the Connecticut River Museum, and the Essex Steam Train & Riverboat, while cafes like Essex Coffee & Tea, bites at Carlson’s Landing and The Black Seal, and boutiques create an easy walkable scene. Outdoor lovers find water access for kayaking and sailing, plus Essex Land Trust trails at Cross Lots and Canfield Meadow Woods; green waterfront spots like the town dock are popular for dog-walking. Essentials are close by with nearby grocery options (Big Y, Stop & Shop), local studios/fitness, and quick Route 9 access to I‑95/I‑91 for commuters. According to Zillow Market Trends, recent median asking rent in 06426 has hovered around the mid-$2,000s, with most listings over the past few months ranging roughly from the low $1,800s to the mid-$3,000s.
