Downtown Manchester has a high density of Poke-stops and you'll find players there almost any hour of the day. There's also an unusually high density in the historic Talcotville neighborhood, much to the dismay of residents there I'm sure.

Center St in Southington and the bike path near Center Street. Think almost 20 PokeStops and 3 gyms.

Town centers are a good hotspot for activity and some more rural/obscure locations can have some good ones to catch. I will admit I am in my 30's, never got into any of this RPG stuff as a kid but figured wth and downloaded it about a month ago. It was entertaining while taking my son for walks (stroller) to flip the ball and catch them through the AR system. Then I was kinda stuck as I did not know what else to do.

Took a vacation to the Jersey Shore and spent time with in laws and family, got a better education and caught a ton of them down there. Figured out what a pokestop is as well. Since then I have worked to evolve a few but have not done the whole gym, battle, etc. side of this game, not sure if I ever will. It is fun as a time waster and something to do here and there but I am by no means addicted or actively searching and connecting with other gamers.

For an app game that you TRULY do not have to purchase anything or wait obscenely long times to get things (where other apps force payments) it's a great game. If you want some more insight let me know, I'm by no means an expert but have come to appreciate it to a degree.

Nothing in Washington Park, nothing in Bucks Hill Park, and nothing even visible from either location.

I was driving down Thomaston the center of the Green is basically like 20, exaggerating a bit, stops. Believe the Hospital is a gym as well.
Where I live nothing and my fiancées house can't stand it at night is this random pokestop in the middle of no where.
