I’m a CT native, lived there for +30 years, I’ve lived in a number of other places and live in San Jose CA currently. I love CT, but can also corroborate a good portion of this list, all except the boring part. Being bored is a personally intrinsic deficiency, it has nothing to do with where you live or activity availability. You could have the fckng olympics in you’re back yard and be bored (and boring). I accrued a ton of cool hobbies and was a part of a number of communities with rad folks in CT, so I call BS on that one.

@Ghostiibat 3 года назад

Yah! My elementary school was like all the school having assemblies for kindness and stuff and said that we should all be friends and the teachers actually cared 4 bullying and barely noticed 'the having ur hood up at school is banned' rule. Also the air always smells like cowpoop in the summer and there's a lot of farms there. Also the town I live in is really nice, like this one time an old lady fell out of the car of her car and was struggling to get up and I pointed it out and my dad was like "we're going to help her forget school we need to help." and so my dad helped her and a bunch of people saw and helped her like they were like "we were doing something…oh well the lady's more important we need to help" and soon a whole crowd was helping her and someone called the ambulance and she is fine I think. But like that day was super wholesome. (I live in CT) this was way too long

@andrewczuba498 6 лет назад

i have lived in ct my whole life. i dream of leaving. soon. its sad, because it is actually a naturally beautiful state. but the state has been destroyed by bad political policy over the last 30 years. we used to have many great companies here, Pfizer, GE, most of the firearms industries were founded here, we have Pratt and Whitney, we used to have Hamilton Standard, Stanley Tools used to manufacture in New Britain , Goodyear Tire was founded in Naugatuck, ct. etc. The question is why have all these world class innovative industries left ct? i know times change but geez ! You can say the same about a lot of New England, as far as world class innovative industries going bust and folding up, Detroit (not in new england) is the same .WHY? its policy, regulation, etc. Ct. had the world's largest thread manufacturer , AMERICAN THREAD CO. in Willimantic, ct. gone. Great Northern Paper Co. , worlds largest was in Millinocket, Maine, gone. Why? thread and paper are still made, in fact they are billion dollar industries world wide, but now they are made in Pakistan, Malaysia, indonesia, etc...

@paralegal-healthcareadmini949 5 лет назад

I also moved from Queens to CT 19 years ago and it's never felt like home to me. The people are different, a trip to Walmart is like a highschool reunion everyone knows eachother and everyone is in every one else's business. This state is also for rich people and coming from NY, I agree there isn't that much to do in terms of the state being boring. NY is non stop it can be 3am and you can still find something to do. I'm hoping to move when I'm done with school. My cousin just moved out of CT due to the same issues. I don't know but it just seems like a dead end.

After living in Connecticut it's absolutely awful. The weather, a Phoenix summer in the summer, a Minneapolis winter in the winter; the cost of living and taxes are absolutely awful; no good cities to live in; karens are your neighbors, kids are disrespectful, adults are snobby, Meet the Joneses in full affect; lack of good jobs; oh and to top it all off the government is corrupt. Best day of my life is when I moved to San Diego 3 years ago :)

My perspective of Connecticut (Middletown specifically, right in the middle of the state): Pros: - Pretty weather for 2/3 of the year, especially fall - Good restaurants - Great hiking - Pretty scenery - Not far from Boston and New York - Great rural/organic products because of so many farms - If there is something exciting going on in Connecticut, it is small so it can't be far away Cons: - Winter is a bitch - Terrible economy - High taxes - People here are really rude - Not much to do, unless you travel to a city

Thanks for making this video. My best friend of 22 years was born in CT but that was a very long time ago. I'm returning to lay her to rest next to her parents as she requested. I was considering a possible move because things appeared to be more country and less expensive. Wow was I wrong. I even asked her cousin if a contractor like myself could stay busy? He said his son a cabinet maker has a year waiting list!! That is great for him but it sounds like I could get broke quick!! My friend was born in one of the best areas and that was 1943 she left in the 70s and had only returned to bury her mother in 2002. Sometimes our childhood memories can cloud our judgement. Thanks again for making the video probably saved me from a huge mistake😉

The reason I work is so I can enjoy the the abundant mountain biking, hiking, boating, lakes, and the shore. And yes we have real oceanfront and beautiful beaches. The variety of food in non-chain establishments is extensive and you can't find better seafood anywhere else in the world. There's also tremendous culture and history throughout the state. When family and friends visit they are always impressed with the region and they can't wait to return. New England weather is burley, but the constant changing of seasons presents new opportunities and the contrast can be spectacular! And if your're not satisfied with what we have in our own backyard, it's a short drive to NYC, Boston, Vermont, or New Hampshire.
