state next to boston and new york. richest state, with wealthy suburbs such as fairfield, new canaan, avon, simbsbury, glastonbury. a lot of famous people live here, and if you go anywhere and you say your from connecticut people assume you are rich. A state where the kids have better cars then the teachers, and the lunch ladies pop their collars. Pretty much every high school student has a northface backpack and jacket, and if you are a girl who doesn't own birkenstocks and or uggs people will think your poor. Every teenager from the ages 15-22 goes to the DMB concerts in the summer at the meadows and gets either too drunk or high to remember half the concert. The package stores close at 8, and people think the only highways are 91 and 84.
"where are you from?"

Ahh Connecticut. Us Connecticutians are wealthy, intelligent and "well-bred." Growing up "inside" this state really gives you no view on the world. We don't experience racism for the few non-white people in the local high school were most likely bussed there from the inner city (but it's okay, they got to pick their bus seat). We make up for our few bad neighborhoods with the extensive sections with lush million dollar plus mcmansions. We don't know what it's like to "go-without" and don't intend to. We party at the meadows and don't remember the concert. Dave Matthews concerts in the summer pretty much qualify as state holidays (for the young that is). Taking advantage of the fact that our police do nothing, we ride around in our expensive BMC or Mercedes sedans and complain (illegally) on our cell phones that Daddy didn't buy us the SUV. We pop our collars as animals mark their territory. What is our territory you ask? It's in a good location you see; between Boston and New York.
1:"Hey, you're from Connecticut right?"
2:"Yeah..."
1:"So you're rich?"
2:"Why does everyone always think that!?"
1:"Well you are, aren't you?"
2:"well.........yeah but...."

A rich state, probably the richest in the country. It has many rich states like Greenwich and Westport (Where I live).

A lot of people assume that were snobs because we shop at places like Hollister, Abercrombie, Juicy Couture and have LV, coach, and pradda bags. And also have people like Martha S., Paul Newman, 50 cent and Johnny Deep who have houses here.

You can say that you might find 1 snob in like 100 people in Westport because that is true. And just to add as a comment

I think blond89 has mistaken info because people in Westport do not wear flip flops in the winter, we do not think bad things about New Jersey and New Haven. Also the cars at our high school are not worth more than our high school. Currently our high school is ¼ of a mile. Last comment WE ARE NOT GAY! This is just the truth from a girl who has lived in Westport for her whole life. In Connecticut there are some poor towns too so don’t judge places from what you hear. I agree with Martha, a lot of people in Westport do pop the collar.
One day when I'm walking in NY. A girl is taking a survey on fashion. And She walkes up to me and says
"I love that that LV Handbag!" "Is it real?" she askes.
I answer "erm...yeah"(I'm thinking to myself why would someone wear a fake one?)
"Do you live in Connecticut?"
"Yea," I answered
"So you must one of the girls that live in an over a million dallor house right?"
"yeah."
So she glares at me and goes Hmph, and stops off.

Capital City:

Unlike the largely white Hartford once run by clubby Yankee businessmen everyone called the Bishops, Perez's Hartford is a city of minorities, many from Jamaica and Puerto Rico, with the largest percentage of Latinos north of Miami and east of the Mississippi. A way station for suburban-bound immigrants, Hartford has a homeownership rate of less than 25% -- the nation's second-lowest, after Newark, N.J. Thirty-one percent of its 125,000 residents live in poverty. Only Brownsville, Texas, ranks lower.

Connecticut is a nice state. If you are the one of the idiots who thinks that it is all rich than you need to leave Fairfield County and roll down your tinted Beamer windows. Or just come to visit from another state. Hartfor id the ghetto and all of the mill towns are for working men and women and sometimes welfare takers. If your are from California your state sucks and you are paying way too much for real estate so don't say shit about CT. Watch out for those wildfires maybe you should get an IQ like as high as a person from CT and stop putting your houses in the middle of the forest without a fire break or on a cliff that is prone to mudslides. You forgot about all of the shitty cities that you have. LA's ghetto is almost as big as CT. Ct is way better than Cali anyday. Our girls have real titties they may be ugly but they are real. I grew up in CT NW corner - Go Yankees. Since I moved to Texas I miss Snow (not shoveling it), grinders, driving on the highway, raggies, package stores, and getting cocked. Texans just don't understand. The unly subs we have in CT are in New London. I wish it was illegal in everystate to talk on the cell phone while driving.
Where you from?
Connecticut.
Your a rich boy arn't you.
No, I grew up in a factory town.
damn yankee!
I kick your fucking redneck ass I got plenty of practice in CT public school ( the only place where you learn how to spell and learn how to fight)
