Voted the Best Small Town in CT, Redding retains authenticity in the face of prevalent mini-mansion developments found in the rest of fairfield county. Looking for a gas station, restaurant, or ATM? Good luck. Roads rarely accomodate two cars at one time, but this doesn't stop us from pushing 60 mph. Although a percentage of adolescents attend private school, most of the youth in Redding develop their drinking stamina in the grips of public school. It's safe to say that most Barlow students have tried most drugs by highschool graduation. Kids have known eachother since their requisite involvement in youth soccer or lacrosse, and your best friend's dad was the coach. "Best car" in highschool was awarded to a super-expensive SUV, but the car you loved the most were your friends' old school volvos and you mostly traveled around in hoardes of Jeeps. We push drunkenness beyond all social acceptability, and listen to music that you will never hear on the radio. Popularity is a meritocracy; interesting people reign. Also, we're proud to be from a blue state and while the rest of Fairfield County voted for Bush, we were Kerry all the way. See you at the late night funk party!

Get the Redding mug.Redding, California is considered the lowest class city in the state of California. The homes are well below market rate there for a reason. Some say Stockton but Stockton is only an hour or so outside the Bay Area while Redding is three long hours away from non inbred populations. The biggest population of registered sex offenders in the United States in proportion to population, the Redding Meghan’s Law Map looks like nothing but red sex offender alert symbols to the point where the map is obscured. People in Redding wear clothing and hair styles decades out of date. With high temperatures and nothing to do obesity is the norm in Redding and surrounding areas. Openly racist school teachers preside the most poorly rated schools in California. No one born or raised in Redding has ever achieved anything of note. Most of the few intelligent who grew in Redding and move away end up fabricating or embellishing their past to dissociate themselves from the corrosive stigma of this squalid area. Redding gave birth to two racist synagogue bombers and double murderers Matthew and Tyler Williams. Factor in meth and homelessness you have the most disgusting city in the First World.
“In Redding, California they still burn crosses. Not my kind of diversity. Even Chico is bette. Redding, California is the most foul place on earth.”

Get the Redding, California mug.Related Words
Redding is a small town (8,500 people) about 1 hour outside New York City that is located in Fairfield County. People in Redding are classy and of course preppy. Most likely if you live here one or more of your parents commutes to NYC by train. Parents make loads of money, participate in cocktail parties, and play tennis and cart around their younger kids to soccer and lacrosse practice. Teenagers have nothing better to do then spend their parent’s money on expensive clothes, drugs and alcohol because there is nothing to do. Yet, they still manage to take home state championships in sports such as soccer and basketball and eventually go off to the Ivy Leagues. Do not be surprised to see parents participating in drinking events right next to their kids. If no one is around in the summer; you can take a car ride to Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket and discover a lot of people from Redding there. Pop your collar. Finally, don't be alarmed if kids between the ages of 13 and 17 fit the description of an alcoholic.
Jim: How much money does your dad make?
Bob: 190,000 a year
Jim: OMG I FEEL SO BAD FOR YOU. Your family is poor why didn't you tell me? You can't live in Redding then.

Get the riedinger mug.Redding, CT is truly a hidden gem. It is centrally located within Fairfield County making a trip to either Norwalk or Danbury easy and has a unique tie to high finance with Alfred Winslow Jones, credited with forming the first modern hedge fund, being a former resident. Some very wealthy people who have lots of acreage as well as upper middle class families. Does not have the same ostentation as some other Fairfield County towns. Great public school system as well as close to Exceptional Private Schools. A trip to NYC is not as easy as Greenwich but, it is close enough. NYC is highly overrated anyway.

Get the Redding,CT mug.a small city in the north end of the Sacramento valley where the radical right has taken a strong hold and has set up base camp for everything white.
Redding has a large population of hillbillies that like to pretend that they are yuppie's. to make my case the local Starbuck's is the only one that sell's Larry the cable guy's CD's.

Get the Redding, California mug.A smallish city, vastly expanding, consisting mainly of caucasians. Those residing in Redding who aren't caucasian usually stay in groups of large numbers, since a large part of the white population are racist assholes. Residents are usually one form of white trash or rednecks, slutty whores or actual prostitutes. filled with tweekers, ignorant morons, and religious fanatics, this is a city that no one ever visits voluntarily, but once someone ends up in Redding they find it extrmely difficult to ever escape. A vast black hole of filled with shit, and very few intelligent persons.
"We traveled through the northernmost area in California until we came across a somewhat interesting looking place called Redding, little did we know it was actually a vast shithole filled with mornonic tweekers and slutty whores."
