Reply to How much snow is Connecticut getting? by duskyxlops
Different parts of the state are getting different amounts of snow. My house near New Haven says maybe 2-3”, my house right across the state line in MA is getting 22”.

Wow, honestly I’m not too surprised; drivers in New Milford are horrible.

extremely dangerous area, you’d be safer in the north end

I'm an attorney and first of all I hope you've thought this law school thing through carefully because most attorneys regret their choice of profession. Lol. True.
OK, now to your question. I just did a foreclosure sale 2 streets over and I was very favorably impressed with that area of Hartford. Go for it. And good luck!

There were some news stories a year or so ago about it. There were also plans to get rid of the traffic signals but I think residents were against it.

This area is the best you're going to get in Hartford for the price. A general rule is anything north of Farmington and you are fine. I'm on Evergreen and it's sketchville. Being that close to the park it will be both safe and quiet.

Not sure why you’re being downvoted for telling the truth

I lived on Oxford St for a year w/ two young children and found it to be a safe area/never experienced any issues.

There have been so many times when I pull up to a 4 way stop and someone is already there. But when I wait for them to take their turn, they just keep sitting there and look over at me with the most confused look on their face. Like dude you were clearly there first by several seconds I'm waiting for you to go

Glad the DOT is finally getting rid of that thing.

That happens surprisingly often here in New Milford at the roundabout. 🤦♂️

I'm on Reddit way too much. Even according to Reddit. I saw a post that brought up her salary which was high. Then another that talked about why. Then this one. I think :)

Hand in the horn and leave it there until you have passed the idiot - they might get the message, then again they might not

I've seen two recent posts about this Professor in this sub.

I lived about a block and a half away on Kenyon St. for a few years. As others have said, that is a very nice area of Hartford. Very safe. The address you gave is even closer to Elizabeth Park than where I was, so to me that’s a big plus.

Why is it when I pull up to a 4 way stop and if it's even remotely close that we both stopped together I always get a wave?

I’ve seen zero posts on this woman, so this seems out of left field. Is there reason to expect the article is not accurately reporting what happened…?
Pretty sure there’s a UConn sub somewhere. That might be more useful.

An arbitrator awarded her the amount for a wrongful termination, it’s not like she is getting a recurring check.
