The year-round population of roughly 10,000 skews older, with a median age of 52, compared with the statewide median of 41. “It’s a place where middle-class people built cottages generations ago and left them to their kids,” said Bart Gullong, 75, who grew up in Old Saybrook, as did his father. And as people retire, they live in them year-round.”The broad avenue that is Main Street is lined with restaurants, shops and specialty markets. Big-box stores and car dealerships dot Route 1, which cuts east-west through town. Residents pay taxes to the town and the borough, which strictly monitors changes to properties in its historic district and limits the times when construction and yard maintenance may be done.

The U.S. is giving away and auctioning off lighthouses across the East Coast and Midwest. The GSA will also sell four lighthouses in Ohio, Connecticut, Michigan and New York in a public auction. But there's a catch: While the lighthouse is free, the new owners will be responsible for the cost of upkeep and maintenance. Warwick Neck Light is located on Narragansett Bay in Rhode Island and is one of the lighthouses being given away for free. Kelly told TIME that there are nonprofits that already maintain some of the lighthouses being offered up this year.
