Connecticut: Best known for its wealth... mostly in Greenwhich and Westport (where I live). Yeah, we have all the
top fasihons, the best (real) bags, the hottest shoes, and yes, we
pop our collar. We, however, aren't snobs, even though we grow up surrounded by abnormally expenisve stuff. We are close to
New York, and we don't think that
New Jersey is terrible... yea, so, we do have more than one house, and ridiculously expensive cars, and our school is, as my fellow westportian stated, HUGE. But, living in this state isn't all great... outside of Yale, New Haven is a dump, and the majority of Connecticut isn't so wealthy/nice. I can't speak for other parts of Connecticut, but I can say this for Westport... we have a GREAT school system, and mostly our IQ is up there,
people go to great schools, so what if they do it in high fashion... unfortunatley we also have a really
high drug abuse/use rate, which isn't slowing. Our town is nice, but overall, seeing the same brands/cars/hairstlyes/shops is boring. And yea, most of us are
happy right here, In Connecticut...
