Saw some nice free concerts outdoors there this summer. Sherwood Island is nice, and they've added some events there as well.I am dumber for having read this.... Westport is a lot of things, but boring??? On the shore, lots of dining options, and so on.. Bridgeport exciting, yeah I guess not knowing if you'll be a crime victim..
the black rock section of Bridgeport is second to only new haven for live entertainment options in Ct. Downtown is dead I agree, but black rock hops.Kitaman said:There is absolutely nothing to do there and downtown is a ghost land after 6pm! Eating out is not exciting and that is the only entertainment availible. .
The article is fine, for what it is, a paper thin look at a few demographics. If they renamed it best places to be single, or best party scene or something, it would be less lame. The placement of New London at the top of the list and Jewett City, shows it to be completely detached from reality.Boring is what boring does. All those towns are fine, not sure about this study. Depends what "boring" is.
The criteria they use for this is pretty stupid. Everybody loves lists though, I guess.

Agree - didn't mean to bash Bridgeport. - the person who wrote this obviously has never been to CT. Westport has a ton going for it.
May God have mercy on his soul...
Small towns are boring. Essex is a beautiful boring small town, Connecticut is full of them.All of Eastern Ct is boring except for Mystic in the summer and the casinos.
Lived in Essex for six months - boring as hell.
North Haven is a fast highway ride from New Haven.
Jewett City should be in rural Alabama.
New London should be the crown jewel of the state. It ain't. You can get out of New London by car, ferry, train and plane( Groton airport). And nuclear submarine. There is a reason for this.
You totally just bored me with this post.Well let's see. I grew up in west simsbury, I work in Essex and I've lived in saybrook and north haven. I guess I am the boring kiss of death.
