The higher income residents all commute, smaller expensive towns, tend to be de facto segregated, but lots of money solves that, higher income educated people bend over backwards to not show racism.

Jobs can be good in the Hartford area, has its own suburbs.

Northern counties and east of Hartford can be very limited, rural woods and hills, farming even, servicing wealthier weekenders and retirees homes landscaping. The uneducated lower class rural folk can be very Trumpista, guns anti BLM etc

The eastern coastal towns can be VERY nice but not as wealthy
