OT but I really appreciate like for the most part everyone on this thread is keeping it positive about CT. It’s so easy to go negative no matter where you live. I feel like the person that this license plate clearly has issues beyond this State 😒

Everything above and I will add- if you involve yourself, people will welcome you. When I moved here, I got involved in my local Democratic town committee and after a bit was invited out with the larger group. I know my neighbors the same way everyone else does in CT, but when I had a pet sitter over the holidays and I couldn’t reach her, my neighbor quickly responded to my text and was able to confirm that she had seen her with my dogs. I’ve been happy here.

The Malted Barley is in Westerly but I’d still recommend it because of its proximity. The pretzels make my mouth water.
