Nice upper middle class towns, some very wealthy Fairfield county suburbs, decaying mill towns, old cities full of high crime and urban blight, lots of traffic on poorly designed highways, bucolic hill towns, boating in Long Island Sound, reserved people, transition of influences between New York and New England.

Spent two weeks in Hartford back in the 60's. Stayed in a hotel on Asylum St. Miserable two weeks in the dead of winter.
