It all depends on what you think is boring and fun. If you are looking for nightlife, bars, restaurants, big events etc. move the hell out of Connecticut. If you want nice towns, with some pretty damn good natural beauty, hiking etc. Connecticut is a really nice place to live. While CT. lacks a lot of the nightlife stuff, you are anywhere from 1 hour to a little over 2.5 hours from NYC and Boston is also close by. Everyone always takes a dump on Hartford but for a small city it's underrated by CT. residents in terms of culture. The Wadsworth Atheneum is a fabulous museum, Hartford Stage gets great acts, The Bushnell is beautiful, Infinity Hall is a really nice venue, New Britain museum is legit etc. Connecticut is not a jumping place but outside of about a dozen or so cities in the country you are not going to find a jumping environment. Part of the beauty in Connecticut is getting in the car and just driving, you pretty much go within 2 or so hours in any direction and you are seeing beautiful countryside.
