Reply to Best Town for West Hartford and NYC commute? by Somekick
Hi! Ct realtor here. Odd circumstance - I previously lived in West Hartford (Elmwood section) and my wife commuted to Darien/New Canaan. Let me tell you now - there are no easy solutions.
We ultimately moved to Milford - very, very happy here. Along the train line for commuting toward NYC, and still accessible to West Hartford, albeit, not necessarily easy. It's either the Wilbur Cross to 691 or straight up 91 to hit 84.
Let me know if you need help finding a place. Trumbull is nice, albeit a little more expensive. Depends on your finances, really.
Milford has had multiple years of decreasing mill rates and has been dubbed "the next Westport," for what that's worth...

Someone needs to tape up a picture of Leslie Neilsen saying "There's nothing to see here!"

Reply to Do I need to replace my deck joists? by RobotKevinSpacey
From what I see, no, you don't. The boards may be discolored but unless there are areas where the board it rotting, you'll be okay.
Be mindful of where the wood makes contact with the ground - water is the killer here.

Reply to I hear lots of people saying Manchester is not the most desirable place to raise a family. Is it true? by [deleted]
The most desirable? Like, THE most desirable?
No. In the northeast corner? No.
In the immediate vicinity of the mall? Well, yeah, because all of that space is in Manchester.

I'm on a sliver of property at the shoreline, but I'd love to shop at wherever it is you'd be selling these awesome, local products. I currently subscribe to Walden meats, which is at least New England (& NY) local. Still, check their pricing because you'll have to compete.
Thank you - I'll be following this thread for updates!

Those little yellow circles should be "Connecticut potatoes," aka, rocks.
