Four designated historic districts exist in Wilton and feature exceptional examples of early American homes, preserved as gracious residences. Stately traditional houses and impressive contemporaries as well as luxurious condominiums are carefully integrated among historic structures. One and two acre lots ensure plenty of open spaces and maintain the pleasant pastoral character of Wilton. Commercial development is also carefully planned and is limited to specific districts. The picturesque Town Green, in the center of Wilton, is surrounded by town offices, the post office and additional shops.
