A term commonly used to describe the resident of Winsted, CT in the Northwest part of the state. A raggie refers to a person who can often be mistaken as a smelly homeless person; they wear the same clothes just about every day, they wear British Knights and BUM sweatshirts. They are poor and their parents are on welfare; they have a large raggie family tree. They are often the brunt of jokes; it is not good to be known as a raggie.
I can't shop at IGA on Main St., that is where all of the raggies go.

a raggie is not a person who is from Winsted, CT. The term raggie comes from Mt. Riga and the locals in Lakeville and Salisbury, CT call it Mt. Raggy. SO! A true and honest raggie or Raggy is a long time local of Lakeville, Salisbury, or Taconic who have spent many a summer day; fishing, swimming, kayaking, or boating on Mt. Riga.
I have lived in Lakeville my entire life, and every summer I go to my cabin on Mt. Riga, we call the year-rounders up there Raggies.
