The United States of America is a country in North America that extends from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean and shares land borders with Canada and Mexico. Torrington is the largest city in Litchfield County, Connecticut and the northwestern Connecticut region. Litchfield County is located in the northwestern corner of the U.S. state of Connecticut. It is also the core city of the largest micropolitan area in the United States. As of the 2000 census, the city population was 35,202, but a July 1, 2004 estimate put the city's population at 36,248.
 
Torrington is a former mill town, as are most other towns along the Naugatuck River Valley. It is currently competing with the neighboring city of Winsted to recreate a pleasant Main Street environment. Downtown Torrington is home to the Nutmeg Conservatory for the Arts, which trains world-class ballet dancers and whose Company performs in the Warner Theatre, a 1,700 seat auditorium restored in 2002 to its original 1931 glory. The theater, while originally built as a cinema by the Warner Brothers film studio, has been reborn as a performing arts venue and arts instruction organization, and will serve as a cornerstone of the city's downtown revitalization project.
 
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 104.6 square kilometers. Approximately 103.1 square kilometers of it is land and 1.5 square kilometers of it is water. The eastern and western sides of the city, at its borders, are at the tops of peaks, while the downtown and central sections of the city are in the Naugatuck River Valley.
 
Torrington is planning to revitalize its downtown area in an effort to attract residents and visitors to the city's shopping and cultural opportunities. These redevelopment plans are still in discussion and are not yet completed. Renovations to the city's downtown Coe Park were completed throughout 2005 and the beginning of 2006. A potential plan discusses the possibility of a national clothing retailer or bookstore chain constructing a location at the top of Water Street on the site of the Kelley Bus Company. Led by the development of multiple shopping centers at that time, the once empty farm land has become home to many chains that are new to the city. Today, one can also learn about its history, from its earliest times and gain enthusiasm in its natural beauty and populace. Torrington enjoys a very positive reputation with worldwide travelers.
