Comparing Stamford to Hartford, Bridgeport, Waterbury or New Haven is laughable. The household income in Stamford is closer to freaking San Francisco than it is any of our other cities. I don't really even consider Stamford a part of this state. It's a different world.

Median household income:
[LIST]
[*]Stamford: 83,309
[*]Hartford: 30,444
[*]New Haven: 37,508
[*]Bridgeport: 34,658
[*]Waterbury: 41,134
[/LIST]
I wonder why they could POSSIBLY handle "big city challenges" better than Hartford.

How about the number of homeless people?
[LIST]
[*]Stamford: 255 (129,000 total)
[*]Hartford: 500 (123,000 total)
[*]New Haven: 660 (130,000 total)
[*]Bridgeport: 400 (145,000 total)
[*]Waterbury: 180 (108,000 total)
[/LIST]
You're looking at well over double the household income in our other cities per capita (median), and half the homeless people on average.. I guess you have to look at a homeless person on the way to your public library after you get your froyo. I'm sorry you have to endure that.
