New Canaan is a good place to live. The people are really nice, although they can be a little snotty.True, it's hard when you walk down the street(if you actually do, instead of in an air conditioned Mercedes) to not see a Range Rover or a suburban. However, it's unfair to stereotype NC people. They are actually really nice, and before you judge you should meet the people. Also,despite the perfectly manicured lawns and huge mansions on Brushy Ridge,look on the inside and be surprised with what you find. Many women get their nails done(I was at Floris and saw a 6 year old there!!!!)as well as their daughters. To the people in Norwalk: Don't base NC people on how they act with the LINKS program-it sucks. Just because they have more expensive clothes than you or a bigger house than yours does not mean that you should be mean and say that all NC people are like that.You are just jealous. It's okay: everyone can be. You can probably tell that I live in New Canaan. just because you live in a smaller house than everyone else doesn't mean we are worse than anyone else.

Get the New Canaan mug.A piss-poor excuse for a police department that "serves" the town of Orange Coun - er, New Canaan Connecticut. Due to the absence of any real crime in New Canaan, the responsibilities of the glorious NCPD includes pulling over newly licensed teenagers for 5-10mph speeding and bitching at them like they just committed homicide. It's a real good thing they stuck it to those hardened criminals by putting unnecessary blemishes on their driving records and skyrocketing their parents' insurance premiums. Go New Canaan. The flagship officers of the department often secure the more high-risk calls, such as standing around like dumbasses at school dances and other events, and then make frequent visits to the school parking lot for the rest of the night where they intercept teenagers returning to pick up their cars after having some fun with their friends, question them, and often breathalyze them as they do at the entrance to every school dance.
Even more pitiful than the police who ride around in their cruisers searching for teenagers to harass while they ignore the real threat - braindead trophy wives driving on their cell phones - are the "Bike Patrol Corps." Yes, New Canaan Police have their very own BIKE SQUAD. Consisting of the cops that were too much of an embarrassment even on standard traffic duty, the Bike Patrol cops endure a 2 week training course the police themselves describe as "RIGOROUS" to become bike cops. Requirements for admission to the bike corps include the following...
-The balls to wear short-shorts over your gelatinous, hairy legs
-The ability to ride a bike without training wheels
-Total lack of self-esteem

Guy 1:Hey man, did you hear about New Canaan Police Officer Ferraro?
Guy 2: No, what's up?
Guy 1: He crashed his police cruiser twice while pursuing teenagers who were on foot, so they put him on bike duty. As a bike cop, a couple of teenagers switched the brakes on his bike. He was riding towards an old lady when he tried to slam on his back brake, but because they had been switched he hit the front brake, flipped over and radioed in "officer down."
Guy 2: No, you're kidding.
Guy 1: I shit you not. So, now they've got him on the night shift as bike patrol. If you want to see him, hang around Elm Street between midnight and 5am to catch him on his normal patrol route.
Guy 2: Wow, what a complete and utter disgrace to real police officers and departments everywhere.

Get the cynda mug.I lived in New Canaan for 4 years.
It really sucks because if you don't have money or you're really ugly you are pretty much worthless. Sports are like oxygen to these people- well only sports that bring home championship titles, the other ones are treated like shit. Everyone has pretty much grown up together and everyone knows everyone. If you're really unfortunate looking, you can buy your friendship with cars, clothes, booze, ect. And drugs are pretty big. Not as big as Ridgefield though. Nearly everyone drinks, many people smoke weed, and some people do coke or oxycontin or whatever. The police are all itching to search teenagers because they are just as bored. Mainly people either hate New Canaan or like it. I'm indifferent because the people are mostly very nice, just not to those that are unattractive, lower middle class, or shy. Overall its a great family oriented place. Once you're older though, there's absolutely nothing to do except drink yourself into oblivion.
