Message: [QUOTE="warbler1055, post: 2911665, member: 1007"] My UConn graduate son just visited us and mentioned that he couldn't recognized UConn campus because there was so much changes, not to mention the new UConn-Mansfield downtown. Living near a colllege or university has a lot to offer retirees and is one of the attractions which is really popular. So we did look at Mansfield, but also Delaware, New Hampshire etc tax friendly states, NC, etc...But we ended up where we lived in CT. I guess depending on where you live in CT 169 towns we have a different perspective about what's life is. Sure CT has a big budget deficit at the moment, high taxes and we wonder why would anybody would want to be governor of ct at this time. We have not been to UConn for a while and we are pretty sure that we couldn't recognized Willimantic, Mansfield, UConn although we spent many years going to UConn to bring supply and visit our children. We did not choose to retire near UConn after all but near the water and frankly we are quite happy living in CT. [/QUOTE]
