Essex is committed to fostering an inclusive and welcoming place for all residents, visitors, employees, and more. We recognize that people have unique experiences, perspectives and identities that shape their individuality, and it is that diversity that contributes to the richness and strength of our community.
Historic Essex Center has been a civic, cultural and economic center since it was established in 1794. The 2024 Town Plan envisions an Essex that continues building a community that is connected, diverse, sustainable and a joy to live in.
