Though it is a bit higher than Fort Wayne for water and sewer, it is more in the range of 15% higher. Home prices are higher as well but, this is only true of certain neighborhoods, as you would find in any small city. New Haven has a top rated police fire and ambulance service, city utilities actually cares about its customers; where Fort Wayne acts like they have better things to do when you call. Snow removal is the fastest that you could ask for where Fort Wayne may take a week, Nerw Haven has it done the same day. Leaf Pickup is much cleaner than Fort Wayne and they actually do it several times rather than twice, like Fort Wayne plus if you call, they will come back. The City actually works for the citizens rather than being too busy, again, like Fort Wayne. remember... Jim... It's easy to complain about something especially when you know nothing different. Give Fort Wayne a try for a few years and you'll see the small amount that you think you're paying more for is actually coming out to be cheaper for the residents in the long run. Plus, Jim... We average about 15% lower for cost of living than the nation. Please take some time to make an educated comment.
