I’ve thought of it so many occasions over time, if I did not reside in Connecticut, the place would I?
Some place hotter? In all probability. Some place quieter? Nah, I just like the bustle of the cities alongside the east coast. Pennsylvania is scorching proper now, perhaps there? The advantage of residing in Connecticut is that we’re round 5 hours in any path from one other world. For those who go North, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine are all very livable. South? Philly, DC, Baltimore are all big. West? Buffalo, Cleveland, and so on. The place are most Connecticut residents shifting currently? New York.
Yep, New York State, in accordance with the fw.com. Over 15,000 Connecticut residents packed up their stuff and moved to New York in 2019. I am certain that when the fw.com crunches the numbers from 2020-2022, that ratio will come again to Connecticut in an enormous approach. So many New Yorkers offered their studio house on Lex and moved to New Milford, Stamford, and Southbury through the pandemic.
The state that I might have guessed because the touchdown pad for many ex-Connecticut residents – Florida – got here in subsequent on the fw.com checklist. 13,227 Connecticut residents moved to Florida in 2019.
And rounding out the highest 3 was Massachusetts, 11,690 Connecticut Yankees moved North into Purple Sox territory in 2019.
I like it right here, firmly planted within the shadows of Boston, Windfall, Hartford, and NYC. We get the very best of these metropolitan space’s tradition, delicacies, and visitors, however nonetheless have the land to develop and enhance. Let’s examine these 2022 quantity fw.com, I will guess Connecticut has taken again fairly a number of New Yorkers since 2019.

It’s all done for a once mighty Connecticut retailer. All of the Nutmeg State Bob’s Stores are set to close their doors after a company announcement.
According to an NBC CT report:
Several companies in the Bob’s Stores and Mountain Sports portfolio will now move forward together in Chapter 11 bankruptcy court.Today’s court ruling consolidates the bankruptcy process for Bob’s and affiliated stores under the company umbrella.
Now NBC CT says action is being taken and all of the Connecticut Bob’s Stores will close, that list includes:
409 Main Street – Ansonia
2300 Dixwell Avevnue – Hamden
179 Pavilions Drive – Manchester
416 East Main Street – Middletown
195 Cherry Street – Milford
172 Kitts Lane – Newington
504 Bushy Hill Road – Simsbury
835 Queen Street – Southington
910 Wolcott – Waterbury
167 Parkway North – Waterford
We chatted about this on the Tuesday (7/2/24) edition of the I-95 Morning Show
Check out the Ethan, Lou & Large Dave Podcast on Apple and Spotify
During the show we each listed off what we remember buying at Bob’s and this is what each of us came up with:
Ethan: Hawaiian shirts
Lou: Ill-fitting pants
Dave: Jordan 2’s
That is quite the visual right there, that is how you dressed in 2000 if you could not decide on a scene. I think I’ve seen this exact outfit the last time I attended the Goshen Stampede. This is also a good-look for anyone who dresses like a slob hoping it will be taken as ironic which works great for Post Malone but if you work at the Post Office in Bethel, people might not get the joke.
4 Connecticut Based Department Stores That Are No More
I certainly remember shopping at three of the stores on this list and it transports me back to my youth and that makes it a find memory. These 4 stores were not only wildly popular in their day but they had their national headquarters right here in the Nutmeg State.

CT governor announces Matt Brokman as new chief of staff
![CT governor announces Matt Brokman as new chief of staff](https://npr.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/d680a1f/2147483647/strip/true/crop/2560x1344+0+0/resize/1200x630!/quality/90/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnpr-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fc2%2F00%2F82b981354bc89382780d1e8073a2%2Fimg-1835-scaled.jpg)
Gov. Ned Lamont announced a new key player in his administration Tuesday.
Matt Brokman, a senior advisor to the governor since January 2023, will take on the role as Lamont’s chief of staff, effective immediately.
Brokman, previously chief of staff for House Majority Leader Jason Rojas and former Speaker of the House Joe Aresimowicz, has also worked in the Connecticut House Democrats Office.
“I think people in this building on both sides of the aisle know him,” Lamont said of Brokman. “They know they can take him at his word, and I think that’s going to be incredibly valuable for us as a state going forward for the next two years.”
With the next regular legislative session about six months away, crafting Connecticut’s next biennium budget is at the forefront. Lamont has said the next budget cycle could be “complicated,” with the state required to spend the last of American Rescue Plan Act funds by the end of 2026.
Brokman replaces Jonathan Dach, who stepped away as Lamont’s chief of staff after a year and a half in the role, citing a move to New York.
Speaking Tuesday, Lamont praised Dach’s work in the “round the clock” chief of staff job, and in various other positions in his administration over the last six years.
Dach said he will continue working with the governor in a senior advisory role on policy projects, such as energy supply, higher education and housing.
The next regular legislative session runs from early January to June 2025
