Orange is a town in New Haven County, Connecticut. The town is part of the South Central Connecticut Planning Region and is governed by a Board of Selectmen.


The Paugusset and Algonquian people previously inhabited the region that is now Orange. In 1639, Rev. Peter Prudden purchased the land from the Native Americans for six coats, ten blankets, one kettle, twelve hatchets, twelve hoes, two dozen knives and a dozen small mirrors.


The town is named after William III of England, who was Prince of Orange from birth in November of 1650.
