You’d have to get rid of most of our political parties then lol

Step one: remove politicians, both democrat and republican, who have their hands on the payroll of energy companies

Utilities shouldn't have shareholders, period.

We gave them money to build and improve to lower costs. They used the money. They sell off what they made. They get suppliers from out of state and pass the expense to the consumer....

How to solve the CT energy pricing crisis: Regulate utilities at the state level again.

I got Constellation at .013 in November.

What are these lists even?

Wasn't when I signed up with Constellation in November.I'll revisit,thanks.

How about also shifting responsibility for eversource to pay for their own advertisements and fines by the state and not pass that directly on to the customer?

Constellation is at .16, Town Square is at .11, so Constellation is not the only or best game in town. I've been watching it over the last few months and there is a lot competition for the lowest rates.

Who's paying rent?

The BOE wants to add more preschool classes this fall. will have to see if the budget gets passed. It only passed by 2 votes last year so get involved.

There is only one these days.Constellation.All the others have dropped out of the program or are far more than Constellation.There used to be(5 or6 years ago)some actual competition.There is no fair competition today.Corporate collusion is my guess.But our regulatory agency is a tool of Eversource.

Might be an antitrust issue, I suspect.

We're hoping to get her into the pre-k at Gilead Hill this fall in the lottery. We've heard good things from others who have been here for a long time.

You’re moving the wrong direction unless you enjoy authoritarian government.

Fat slob

Certainly you get Trump flags north of Norwich pretty quickly. But yes, they still aren't as frequent or as intense as other states.

OP should just stay away from the Killingly school system. Their school board has been in the news a little too much recently for some Red state red meat type nonsense.

On the other hand commutes in Florida are farther. Used to take a full 35 minutes to get to high school in FL on I-95. Driving like 75 mph.

CT is only 2 hours wide. Drive from JAX to Miami and thats like 10 hours.

What Floridians don't get is that the Merritt aint like 8-lane I-95. CT driving IS different. Heck CT I-95 isn't like FL I-95. Half the lanes and twice the traffic.

There are a couple of CT towns with good access to either I-395 or I-95. Even Route 2 is fairly "highway-ish"

But yes, if OP wants to avoid or have access to faster connecting roads they can.

Kids often have the choice of their regular high school, plus a few others for magnet programs, plus the state run Vocational Technical schools. The CTECS school system is selective and does reject middle schoolers applying. But at the end they have a high school diploma plus apprenticeship completed in a trade and they usually work part time senior year in their field.

Kids in my town have a choice of 11 high schools. Pretty good deal. Spending per student is also pretty decent in comparison to FL education budget.

All homes are "historic" compared to Florida (which really didnt start building in mass until after the invention of air conditioning.) But you know 1950's homes don't have anything special about them.

Really the question is Bigger City or more Country. Eastern CT is surprisingly rural, and I didn't realize that until I moved up here. You also may be limited by reasonable commute to jobs, and that may narrow things down. Southeastern CT's main employers are Pfizer, Electric Boat (and the Subbase), and the Mohegan and Foxwoods Casinos plus two hospitals. There is also a Dupont plant in there as well. But NE CT is much more sparse on major employers. Western CT has its own deal. And SW CT is basically NY to me, a non-native CT person who has lived here a little bit.

ohhh

Because you said "forced"

Norwalk is head and shoulders above the rest of these places in terms of quality of life, schools, things to do, etc. It’s also the most expensive, but you get what you pay for.

East of Hartford into Manchester, Vernon, Bolton, South Windsor, Hebron will be cheapest.

Also check into Middletown (south of Hartford)

I would look into a 'historic reproduction' . An 'historic home' no matter how much updated may have unseen issues.
