Geographic note: Uncasville is an unincorporated village within the town of Montville, New London County, Connecticut. Connecticut’s civic structure divides the state into towns (the primary municipal unit) with named villages or communities within each town. Montville is the legal town; Uncasville is the specific community where the Mohegan Reservation is located and where the casino is addressed. The two names refer to the same location — Mohegan Sun is both “in Montville” and “in Uncasville” simultaneously.

Montville/Uncasville sits in the Thames River valley in southeastern Connecticut, approximately 10 miles north of New London and roughly 130 miles northeast of New York City via I-95 and CT-395. The Mohegan Sun complex occupies a substantial section of the Mohegan Reservation along the Thames River. The Connecticut tribal casino market is dominated by two properties: Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods Resort Casino (Mashantucket Pequot Tribe) approximately 12 miles east in Mashantucket. Together they form one of the most concentrated destination gaming markets in the United States, drawing from throughout New England and the greater New York metropolitan area.
