DataHaven hosts a "Data by Topic" page on the issue of Environment, which you may refer to at http://www.ctdatahaven.org/dbt/dbt.php?topic=7. As we are developing a new system for visualizing this information, not all of our data sets have been uploaded here. Please contact us directly if you can't find what you need.
For the most recent general socioeconomic profile data on Connecticut towns and counties, please visit our page on Demographics. We have links here to the most recent profiles published by the Census Bureau, including commuting data.
