Rogers is a historic mill village in northeastern Connecticut, part of Killingly, with tree-lined streets tracing the Quinebaug River. Residents enjoy a low-key pace with quick access to I‑395 and short drives to Putnam and Plainfield, plus the rolling countryside of Windham County. Weekends often mean hiking the rugged ledges at Old Furnace State Park, paddling quiet stretches of the river, or exploring the woodlands and dark skies of the The Last Green Valley National Heritage Corridor. Local services, permits, and community events are easy to track through the Town of Killingly.
Schools anchor daily life. Families are served by Killingly Public Schools, including Killingly High School, known for career-technical pathways and spirited athletics. For higher education and workforce training, Quinebaug Valley Community College in nearby Danielson offers flexible programs and community courses. Healthcare needs are covered close to home at Day Kimball Healthcare in Putnam, a reliable regional hospital and network.
Though compact, Rogers has an outsized story: it grew around early paper mills and later gave rise to the innovative Rogers Corporation. Today, residents balance heritage with convenience—quiet streets, local eateries in Killingly’s village centers, and straightforward commutes around the Quiet Corner.
