Define Wilton Meaning

Good things:

1. Best Education System in Fairfield County

Although people really forget about this fact, Wilton does have the best public schools in Fairfield County (see the CT Magazine ratings every year) and I'm sure thats the only reason why my parents continue to tolerate living here. While at Wilton I have had some excellent teachers; two of my teachers have a PhD in their respective fields.

2. Good Parties

As in any small town in fairfield county the parties are damn good.

3. Good sports

Yes, our sports teams are good too. Field Hockey and Girls soccer won States this year. Lax teams are perineal winners.

4. Some Genuine People

In order to live in Wilton, you must have money. Which means you must have a pretty good education right? (excluding stay at home moms) Within this group of people there are some very interesting people who dont just care about money. It is possible to survive in wilton as a non-business professional. You dont have to be bloody rich as in New Canaan or Darien, and I think that preserves some semblance of normalcy.

5. Short Drive to New York

Commuting to New York takes a little over an hour.

Very nice.

Bad Things

1. Superficiality

I dont know if people in Wilton are truly happy. Most pour all their money into their huge house renovations, expensive cars, country club memberships and 120 dollar haircuts and yet we have a huge rate of domestic violence incidents. Go figure. The only thing holding together half of the families in Wilton is the fact that the husband makes over 200,000 dollars a year.

2. Nothing to do

There isnt really anything to do here. Thats why everyone drinks and smokes. The teen center is a huge bust. Hey, but at least some kids got a resume booster out of it.

3. Open mindedness?

There are way too many conservative people in this town and the surrounding areas. I respect being conservative for religious reasons, but most people here love the padding that the tax cut gives them. There is definitely a huge stoner-chill out contingent within the highschool but most of these are not stoner-intellectuals, the majority are stoner-waste of lifes.

4. Pre-professional Pressure

There is tremendous pressure on the kids here to do really well in school, and get into an elite college. Most of the kids that are accepted to the elite schools are brilliant and self-motivated, proving that this pressure is unnecessary and ineffective.

On the whole, Wilton is suprisingly not as bad as New Canaan, Darien and Greenwich which epitomize Preppy-snobbyness and old money. But dont worry theres plenty of that here too.

1 a town of rich preppey snobs

7 a town filled with people you just hate to love.

Wilton is the biggest waste of Fairfield County land mass in Connecticut. A mix of new and some old money, kids grow up thinking that the world revolves around them. Wilton is a bubble that has THE most USELESS stores possible: GAP, Chicos, etc. The movie theatre and Starbucks have only been there for about 4 years. Come people - who really needs 2 grocery stores: Village Market (for pretentious Wiltonians who rather pay more for their Bisquik at some snooty "market" where you'll find some of the very few high schoolers who actually work) and Stop & Shop. Come hang out in "The Center" - everything closes at 9:30...except Coldstone- don't get too excited. J.Crew and Abercrombie rule. There are more Coach bags in Wilton than sober/clean middle schoolers. Roads suck here - so do the cops who insist on pulling over EVERYONE for speeding and what not...there is nothing else for them to do here. It's in the woods. Too many bugs. Wranglers (the cars of choice...for some nauseatingly odd reason) and 745is risk colliding with rampant deer on winding, narrow pathways referred to as roads. Wiltonians worship Kristine Lilly and have named everything from streets to fields after her. Everyone either plays LAX, field hockey or soccer. Play another sport and suffer the consequences: ridicule and poor funding. The only good thing about Wilton is that its an hour train ride away from NYC. Get out while you can...or stop by Trackside for a good time ;)

1) The town where 95% of the successful parents are secretly alcoholics
2) The town where Mohammed, Alah, Jesus, Batman, and the marijuana leaf where born (not Moses because noone likes him)

Located in the rural and scenic part of Southern Connecticut, otherwise known as Fairfield County (or hell to others), Wilton is a town of nothing. There is truly nothing here and I'm sure there never was anything here, and in all likelihood there never will be anything. The town is infested with upperclass stoner snobs who get all the drugs from weed, to coke, to acid, and so on and so forth. You won't find lower class heroin addicts here, only the lamest of the lame Phish loving stoner types who are elitist enough to say that Phish were so good, they had to break up so the members could be even better on their own.

Oh, and of course, theres the sad-sad music scene, comprised of disaffected youth in half-hearted and pathetic punk bands, the typical jam band spin offs re-doing "99 Red Balloons" in 20 minutes and ruining a good song, and of course the necessary metal bands, just to prove that this is the dregs of suburbia. In all reality, there is no future for these bands outside of Trackside and other local venues such as the Empress Ballroom in Danbury and other teen centers around the county. Of course, if you're into self-obsessed stoner jam-bands or self-righteous punk bands, be my guest and come here and enjoy them with us (do we really enjoy them at all?).

Racial profiling is necessary here in Wilton. In school, theres in an intense racial barrier, due to the fact that there may be only 4 or 5 african-american kids in the school at the time, a few hispanic kids, and maybe a couple Jewish kids or even some Indian kids. But its not uncommon to here someone drop the n-bomb casually or call an Indian kid a towel head. To properly fit in, White Christian is best.

When Pete Townsend sang "Don't Cry/Don't close your eyes/It's only teenage wasteland," I'm sure he wasn't thinking of Wilton, but hell, it works really well in describing, well, Wilton.

Wilton is a Fairfield County town that no one really cares about. People from Wilton think they are wealthy, their manshions go for around 1.4million, where as in upper class towns such as Darien and New Cannan, you couldn't buy a shit hole with that kind of money. They think people from Darien and New Cannan are their "rivals," not really. Your like a little sister who can't keep up. Wilton is essentially a wannabe Darien or New Cannan.

A town in Connecticut where police give tickets to anyone who looks like they might be out of town for any reason they can find. It is theorized that 87% of the town of Wilton's revenue comes from pulling over out of towners.

Name of a shithole in central North Dakota, run by a group of low-life assholes.

Located in lower Fairfield County, Wilton is a town of sophistication, wealth, and people who are better than you are. A place where it is not unusual to see a pair of Nantucket red pants with whales on it paired with topsiders and a pastel Lacoste, a place where collars are undoubtedly turned upwards in the direction of their wearer’s nose, a place where the words “yacht” and “summer” are used mostly as verbs and a “crew” isn’t a bunch of black people standing on the corner. Recently cited as the fourth wealthiest town in America, Wilton is home not only to prosperity, but also to class. Excelling in sports such as lacrosse, skiing, water polo, rowing, and beirut (class sport for the 2004 seniors of Wilton High), Wiltonians enjoy the finer things in life; when they’re not yachting to their summer residence on block, playing squash at their club on Nantucket or clubbing in nearby New York City, they’re undoubtedly enjoying a relaxing sunset in the Hamptons, teeing off at Pebble beach or “becoming cultured” in Europe. Known predominantly for their famous reputation in athletics and their notorious partying lifestyle (see “beat Wilton”), Wilton High School boosts one of the highest college acceptance percentages and mean standardized test scores. Wilton High School students are bread to attend prestigious universities, to match the success and prosperity of their predecessors, and to live up to the lofty expectations of their blue-blooded peers.
