Reply to comment by ZestyItalian2 in What are the richest towns in CT? Like with the nicest houses, cars, etc? by boxing1414

West Hartford doesn't really belong on this list in my opinion. It does have some rich residents but the per capita income for the town is $54k. Greenwhich is at $98k, Darien is at $116k, and so on. It's more upper middle class yuppies in West Hartford than the ultrarich types you'll find in the southwest of the state.

It's somewhat relative, Avon/ Glastonbury/Farmington/West Hartford are wealthy towns with respect to metro Hartford.

New Canaan/Darien/Wilton/Weston (etc) are wealthy WRT metro NYC. Which makes them the elite of the elite.

Most of these towns are great places to live, we have lived ourselves, and/or have relatives in all of them save Darien.
