About Essex
West
Essex West, located between Five Corners and the Winooski River, is a residential and civic Essex Junction neighborhood with a rail-line backdrop and pocket parks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Five Corners, where Main Street and Lincoln Street meet amid small storefronts, sidewalks, and steady local foot traffic. Community pillars include The Essex Experience, the Essex Cinemas, and the Essex Junction Recreation & Parks Department’s Maple Street Park. Housing reads as classic New England: compact capes, mid-century ranches, and newer infill on leafy blocks. Paths and playing fields shape daily routines, while the nearby river corridor adds a wooded edge. The rail station and village streets give the area a grounded, walkable feel.
