As the community faces climate change and shifting economic realities, the locals' pragmatic view on tourism reflects broader national political divides, impacting local governance.
Stonington's breathtaking scenery coupled with its lobster-rich economy paints a complex picture of a town at the crossroads of tradition and external change.
