Here's a list for us to tear apart--

These Are The 10 Most Boring Places To Live In Connecticut - RoadSnacks

It like the methodology was simply "which town has the fewest young, single people." The towns on the list, are some of the less boring towns in CT, IMO.

I've got a few nominations that didn't make the "most boring list".

1) Lebanon
2) North Grosvenordale
3) Union
4) Oxford
5) Ashford
6) Griswold
7) Sherman

They have Westport as #8? I can think of so many other towns that are a lot more boring than Westport.

Lebanon and Griswold are great. Boring? Not at all. There's tons of stuff to do there. I'm sure you could fill that "boring" list with suburban towns in Fairfield County and the I-91 corridor where there isn't much more than homes and stores.

Can you give a few examples of the "tons" of stuff to do in Lebanon and Griswold?

At least Sherman and Oxford are close to amenities, highways and state parks. There are a few towns in NE CT that are close to absolutely nothing. Thompson, Sprague, etc

Interesting to see Georgetown represented- as it is not a town or city. It's an imaginery neighborhood spanning Redding and Weston primarily (and Wilton to a lesser extent). Boring perhaps, but not likely to be in the top 10 for oldest residents. Weston and Wilton have very large populations of k-12 relative to the total town population.

Lebanon is boring, nothing to do or see here. So you just stay away
