| Living Downtown - 1/6/2011
We recently moved here and chose to live downtown. It's a recovering downtown. We're enjoying access to many theaters, museums, parks, great restaurants and other resources. Hartford downtown has the chicken-n-egg problem of needing more residents to support downtown businesses and more downtown businesses that would attract more residents. We lack grocery stores and affordable retail stores. Hartford is trying and people seem to be responding. [read more...]

| Hartford: city with nothing in it - 12/27/2007
I got transferred to Hartford thinking it was a small-moderately sized city. This city is dead. There is very little nightlife. People have, for the most part, flocked to the suburbs. There is one museum. This is not the city to live in if you want night life or city benefits.[read more...]

| It's okay - 7/25/2007
Hartford doesn't have much to offer, but there is a lot of culture and recreation. It's a small city, but you can find nice neighbors outside the city. There's always something to do, but not all day or all night.[read more...]

| The Great Escape - 6/4/2007
Steve McQueen and Charles Bronson would have escaped this city in about 30 seconds if filming was on location here for one of the all time great American films. When you arrive in Hartford look North, South, East and West as long as each direction is a highway to greener pastures and beyond New England's sinking ship.

| Example of urban blight, flight and destructive po - 12/31/2006
We lived in Hartford for 24 years and happily no longer reside there. Schools have become very ghettoized with standards as low as possible to include as many as possible. Public transit keeps being cut back with service very difficult to use and transit drivers very customer aversive. Evenings, holidays and weekends cannot be considered culturally enriched unless one drives to the outlying suburbs. Grocery stores have closed in many Hartford neighborhoods and getting groceries means either a long slog on public transport or use of a car to go outside.
There are certainly pockets of prosperity. However, the northern half of CT is run differently than the southern half. CT boasts three of the most empoverished cities in the U.S.: Hartford, Bridgeport and New Haven. Because of the dirty work of a previous Republican governor and his dastardly appointees, the state has been eviscerated of much that used to recommend it and will probably not recover in a generation.[read more...]
