Did anyone ask for your opinion other than me?
me too, and, me too.Kinda like Johnny Cash, I've been everywhere, man! But I would not leave Southeastern CT to live anywhere else in the world
Sounds like you were on the wrong side of the river.I lived in/worked in CT for a few years, back in the day. Wouldn't do that again. I've lived in about 7 different states. I'd rank CT as the worst I've lived in. I was just talking to someone today about how horrible it was to live there.
The taxes are high. Granted they are high in other places too, but in CT you don't get anything for the high taxes. Roads are still terrible. Signage is really, really bad. Weather is not good.
Mostly though the problem probably is the people. They are just not very nice. Probably has to do with so many NY (Giants, Jets, Yankee) fans. Granted they are not on the Vol level, but they are pretty terrible.
Besides UCONN WBB, I can't think of anything that isn't better somewhere else.
I agree, I’ve been after my wife for years to move south but she just doesn’t want to leave her mom and two sisters. Ct taxes everything except the air we breath, who knows how much longer that will last.I lived in/worked in CT for a few years, back in the day. Wouldn't do that again.

the interesting thing is that southeast Connecticut is still the place (cf, 'boats -underwater') and has been for centuries, for world explorer types. here's one

I lived on both sides at different times.Sounds like you were on the wrong side of the river.

shehcargo is a great All-American town. mebbe the towniest of all the big cities here, yet the least likely in which to identify a common thread that ribbons the whole place together. the folks are great, pleasant in a midwest sort of way, but all highly parochial to their part of that place.Chicago Deep Dish.

I've lived in 5 different states and while CT has easily the most ridiculous tax of all the states I've lived in, I feel like it actually does the most with the tax dollars. Roads are generally good, snow removal is great, and the metro north is awesome. You get great schools, amazing food, and an easy ride to NYC or Boston. I would consider moving back if there was any mountains, but I enjoy the outdoors too much to live in CT.
This explains a lot.Chicago Deep Dish.
