Killingy's movie theatre closed five years ago and was demolished, so he'd have to go up to Massachusetts for films.

CT is very different than Michigan



1. In CT cost of living varies like 90% of Fairfield County is one of most expensive places to live in the U.S and the East Coast towns such as Greenwich, Wilton, Westport is very expensive there very nice towns too and easy acess to NYC, New Haven County is less expensive than Fairfield County but some towns there are costly, Hartford County is in the middle of cost of living, Far east of the state closer to Rhode Island border is average, Northeast part of the state is rural/small towns/less urban Litchfield county


2. Thompson is a rural town in Windham County next to the Massachusetts border which is northwestern part of the state it has total of over 9,000 people, No it does'nt have a walkable downtown it more of small town, It is far away from CT major cities, Closest city is Worcester MA which is 25 mins away on Interstate 395 the highway run though Thompson, CT.

3. Weather in CT is like MI but we don't receive as much snow as them If we got 58 inches of snow for the winter, MI would get 75 so it less harsh here, Summers it hot 80s-90s, Winters mainly in the teens to the 30s sometimes we below zero temps wind chill but not all the time.

4. It lacks public transportation



Are u getting a job in CT and I would'nt recommed to live in Thompson

Yeah, I guess it wouldn't be so bad to live there if I am close to other, larger cities that have more to offer in terms of shopping, restaurants, an entertainment.
