Life in Glastonbury, CT

Glastonbury is a Connecticut town located in Hartford County that dates all the way back to 1693. While the town was founded in 1693, settlers actually began coming to the area as much as 30 years earlier in 1663.  The town is located seven miles to the southeast of the city of Hartford, and it is on the Connecticut River. It was named for Glastonbury, England and its population as of the most recent census was close to 35,000 people.

Glastonbury spans 52.2 square miles and it is considered to be a census-designated place. It extends from the banks of the Connecticut River up into foothills, where residents and visitors alike can get a beautiful view of the skyline of downtown Hartford.

Many of the developments in Glastonbury where residents live are built on steep hills, including the area’s major residential development which is on Minnechaug Mountain. Other developments surround Diamond Lake, a small private lake which is accessible only to members of the Diamond Lake Property Association, which is an association of homeowners who reside in large lakeside properties. One of the steep areas in the town, which is officially called Kongscut Mountain, is informally known as Rattlesnack Mountain due to the population of timber rattlesnakes that reside largely in state forests located in the area.

Senior Services in Glastonbury, Connecticut

As of the most recent census, approximately 8.8 percent of households in Glastonbury, Connecticut were comprised of someone who was 65-years-old or older who was living alone. Living alone means that seniors must manage their own social, emotional and physical needs.  As seniors get older, remaining connected to their community and fulfilling routine activities of daily living can become more challenging.

There are services in Glastonbury that can help all seniors.  You can find information on senior services and senior centers in the town of Glastonbury by visiting the State of Connecticut’s Network of Care service directory. This service directory indicates there is a senior center located at 300 Welles Street, Glastonbury, CT 06033.  The senior center is open 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM on Monday, Wednesday and Friday; 8:00 AM to 8:30 PM on Tuesday and Thursday; and 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM on Saturday.

The center offers a “wide variety  of social, educational, recreational, intergenerational, wellness, cultural and informative programs for adults ages 50+,” according to the description on the Network of Care website. The telephone number to reach the senior center and to find out about the services that it offers is 860-652-7649.

If you need more assistance as a senior than a senior center can provide to you, Nirenstein, Horowitz & Associates can help you to explore options for taking advantage of benefits programs including those offered by Medicaid and by the Veterans’ Administration if you are an eligible veteran or if a member of your family served.

Probate Court in Glastonbury, Connecticut

Many people of all ages need help with going to probate court. You may require assistance with probate matters if your loved one has passed away and you need to probate a will, or you may require assistance with probate matters if you need to initiate guardianship proceedings because a loved one has become incapacitated.

There are different courts for different regions in Connecticut, and this state directory explains which region people within Glastonbury are located.  For those in Glastonbury-Hebron, you can also find information on the location and contact details of probate court from Connecticut’s probate court website.

The probate court serving Glastonbury can be reached at 2143 Main Street, P.O. Box 6523, Glastonbury, CT 06033.  The telephone number is 860-652-7629 and the fax number is 860-368-2520.   The hours that the probate court is open for Glastonbury residents include Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 8:30 to 4:30 and Tuesday from 8:30 to 7:00 PM.

Going to probate court can often be very difficult for family members who have been left to cope with a painful family situation like an incapacitated loved one, and can also be hard in a time of grief after a death. As a result, many people opt to get legal help before they get sick or before they pass away so they can find ways to keep their families out of probate court. Nirenstein, Horowitz & Associates can help you to craft an estate plan and incapacity plan so probate proceedings should not be necessary for your loved ones.
