Waterfords a nice all around affordable town. I spend a lot of weekend time in Niantic / Old Lyme and really enjoy going to Waterford. Wouldnt mind living there myself.

I’ve never used it, and it might just be shit, but Waterbury and southward have a metro north line. Maybe look along rt 8? Closer to west Hartford. I guess it really depends how long the train ride is and how frequently the trains run.

I will point out OP needs to be in NYC three days while they're wife needs to be in West Hartford five days. So I would make more sense to live closer to West Hartford. Especially since OP can do productive work on the train.

It does, but you have to switch off at the South Norwalk station for a second train. Out of Milford you only need one train. Danbury schools are ok, but the Milford ones are better, if this person has kids.

When you realize you like to have two beers at a restaurant and that CT is about to make that illegal by lowering the BAC limit to .05….

Florida Don't Say Gay laws. Florida anti trans legislation. Just Google "why does Florida suck for queer people" and you'll figure it out pretty quickly.

Maybe Fairfield? I live on the Fairfield/Black Rock boarder and was working in NYC until recently. It’s about an hour drive to West Hartford and the train from Fairfield Metro is about 80 minutes to Grand Central. Not saying it’s great but it is definitely a manageable middle ground, in my opinion.

My house in SC would cost 600k in CT if I were to buy the same size house up there. But then again they don’t debate executing women for having a abortions in the CT state legislature.
