[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a second home in the town that supposedly inspired Stars Hollow and it is a truly magical place. [/quote]

22:31 here, please tell me about it![/quote]

I assume that's Washington Depot, CT. Looks charming![/quote]

Just mapped that!  Much longer drive to Hartford, New Haven, and Bridgeport than is depicted in the show!  🤣  “Stars Hollow” has to be somewhere closer to Wallingford.[/quote]

Washington is the town ASP used as the model for SH. It’s about an hour and a bit to each of those places which is what they claim in the show, though it’s not super realistic to imagine someone from there going to hs in Hartford. 
It’s a lovely, bucholic small town with some quirky characters and shops, some really good food and a lovely inn. The town of Washington is actually 5 (or 6?) different townships and it somewhat feels like they combined them all to make Star’s Hollow. There isn’t the same town square with all the commercial buildings around it but there is Washington Green which has the “square” and churches, post office and one cafe which capitalizes on the SH connection. It also has the Mayflower Inn which was where ASP stayed. Then Washington Depot (or “the Depot”) nearby has more commerce and is probably more of the real inspiration but it doesn’t have a square. It is just down the road from the Green. [/quote]
