Question for lifelong Connecticut residents:
Why?
Huge taxes and 7 months of really crappy weather, grey skies and limited sun.
Just wondering when it seems a good percentage of Boneyarders have moved south.
My family thought I was crazy to move south and then 3 years later 2 of my sisters and my parents moved to North Carolina and they said it was the smartest thing they had ever done.

I am actually someone who grew up in the South and chose to stay in Connecticut after graduation. I have loved every minute of it and would not consider heading South in the forseeable future. I was about to type out a thousand reasons for my personal decision because people who phrase a question where they think that everyone should value/enjoy the same exact things that they do in life tend to piss me off but then I realized that this is the Boneyard and the following question is good enough reasoning:

How many UConn sporting events have you witnessed live lately?
