#Connecticut #Travel #MysticPizza #GMA
Connecticut is soo slept on. Such a beautiful place to buy a house yet everyone in NYC moves to Long Island and westchester
Everyone? Not true
Plenty of foreigners (NY) buy in Connectishit, especially the SW area.
In my honest opinion it is expensive and not really that close to NYC. You can find something comparable in Westchester or NJ for same price and it's much closer. It is nice though, endless suburbs. High taxes and distance make it a not a first option.
@@Unoriginalswine find me something comparable in west Chester that isn’t 20k plus in property taxes each year
@@lukebradley7879 Assuming your referring to Greenwich the only place in CT within 30-35 miles from Manhattan. The average home is $1.5 mil 😆. Plus 11k in property taxes. New Rochelle average home is 742k and average 14k property taxes. No Brainer id choose Westchester. However I do not live there. Besides NJ is substantially closer to Manhattan, Fort Lee is only about 5-10 miles away and average home is around 500k and 10k in taxes. In fact essex, hudson and bergen County all sit within 2-20 miles away of Manhattan. As I said CT is nice, but overall it's an expensive and a boring state with not much but some nice suburbs. The schools are comparably better in NY and NJ. If you can live closer to NY while paying less why bother living in CT?
So happy to see the home state getting some love!
Yes!!!
I live right in Mystic!!!!! Such an honor seeing it here.
Lots of love to Connecticut from
Michigan
Lots of love to Michigan from Connecticut
Right back at ya! ❤️
Going to CT in July.. spending the summer with my daughter and her family... can't wait to get there.. Love that place
..
Make sure that if you stay long do blue berry picking and strawberry picking …do the wine trail….I live in Northford CT and we have 2 winery’s
@@meyokkob458 I'm in North haven!😁
@@mycatiswaysmarterthanmosto8500 North Haven is down the road it’s a great town as well
Connecticut is NICE💜
It’s very expensive too
Not all of it
I live in CT & I love Mystic! So much to do in town and nearby. So many delicious restaurants! I can't wait to try My Wife Didn't Cook!
Left Connecticut after 45 years of high priced living and taxed to death state. Do not regret it. Now 20 years later living in Florida love my state. Life is good.
100% absolutely gorgeous state being destroyed by a long lasting corrupted government. Every other home is up for sale. Taxed over just about anything you can possibly imagine. You left a while back. Guess what now? So we are now taxed if you purchase (literally) anything but also- when you sell (literally) anything. Gas tax is about 70 cents to the gallon. They transferred funding from the forestry department and closed down over half of our parks and let them go to waste, including seven falls in higganum, which was known to be one of, if not the oldest park in the entire country. Our roads are seriously over grown. Our trees are being choked out by asian bittersweet which is extremely invasive. Our swimming holes are inundated with freaking asian lily pads and I'm not trying to sound racists or anything that's just what these plants are described as. They have restricted all of the areas for swimming. They expect us to continue to wear masks even while in the water unless we are "actively swimming." Unless you go to a package store. You cannot go to a bar and only order a drink. You have to order food too. I swear to flipping god how stupid is that? The DMV was a total mess when you left. Promise you it's even worse now. We have to pay 10 cents for any bags... ( any paper or plastic bags) at any store. It's a tax- taxed for online shopping. Taxed straight out of our paycheck to pay for sick pay even if the companies offer sick pay. We still have to pay this tax now because they've created a law that anyone who works 40 hours is alloted one hour of sick pay and it doesnt matter if you only work 10 hours a week. Its added up and doesnt even expire yearly. I can keep going but you already know its hell here. It's like a vacuum. Its sucks you in and you cant get out so God bless you for finding a way. I'm right behind you. Already have property in another state but cant save a damn dime to buy or build a home on it thanks to CT and its ridiculous prices, taxes and the general cost of living versus hourly pay wages. I make 32.50 an hour and I'm practically living paycheck to paycheck raising 1 child- its ridiculous!
I'm sure florida is much better for people like you.
Broke
@@mycatiswaysmarterthanmosto8500 what?
@@freedomrings.0007 facts!
My expensive home state 🤦🏻♀️😬❤️.
Every heard of New York or New Jersey
Love Connecticut, My Home!
Yes! Me too! 🙂
The first “commercial” telephone exchange was in New Haven connecting to Bridgeport.
The first telephone switchboard was made in Meriden CT.
Connecticut has the BEST pizza
The world’s first helicopter flight also took place in CT!
Would love to visit Connecticut!
Great State Please Enjoy The Visit !
⚖Fyi to visit CT will cost you the same as visiting Bermuda across the board from hotel stays to travel expenses and dining out. ⚖
Just ask the locals we’re to eat we are know for our Pizza….the top 3 Pizza places are Pepe’s, Sally’s, Modern pizza if you don’t believed me look it up we are the number 1 pizza state
@@freedomrings.0007 that's not true...there are decent hotels in CT for 75 bucks a night. CT's not expensive to visit, only expensive to live.
@@freedomrings.0007 Lmao I see you trashing CT in every reply. Move if you hate it so much!
CT is nice just expensive but still a good state.
And boring peaceful but boring
@@sweetsable895 CT not boring
Yes, it is expensive here. And yes, also boring lol. Leaving this year THANKFULLY!
@@Awaredo its not boring plenty too do good luck woth w/e is next
@@MuneyJordan23 …….. we’re different people who may enjoy different things. To me, it’s boring. You don’t have to agree, but that was my comment just expressing how I feel.
Of course, they highlight the wealthy areas…. CT is VERY expensive and there’s really not a ton to do if you don’t have money 🤷🏻♀️
Hello nice to meet you how are you doing today how is the weather over there you really look so nice on your profile how is your family hope they are fine?🌹🌹🌹
How was your day today
Hello how are you
Thanks for keeping it real, Alyssa!
West Hartford, CT is a gem as well
The education is great except today there's no accountability for bad behavior. And they're teaching kids to see race over character and that socialism is a good thing. Wife's a teacher there and she comes home very upset in what they're teaching and she's not white and doesn't understand why they push forms of CRT.
@@geef917 yeah I go to Conard High there and they do that every Thursday it's called "community" and they basically just teach CRT
@@honeycrispapples7748 trust me I know my wife's a teacher in West Hartford. She's not white and she has come home crying on occasions because of what they're teaching and pushing. She fights back when she can but she doesn't implement these things in her class but she has to sit through these meetings. But until parents start fighting against it she can't do anything. And the majority of the minority teachers don't agree with it at all it's the white teachers that are pushing and the head of the board of education who's a white male is extremely for it.
Connecticut is where I live as well!!! A lot of things to do here especially in the summer
We are moving to CT in August! I can't wait to get out of California!
Girl why.
Best of Luck Would Rather Have Cali tho
Girl it's boring here unless you live near rich people
Buy a bulletproof 🦺!!!
Despite the negatives the above mentioned, CT isn't actually too bad. Kinda boring, but the nature and food here is pretty good.
Mystic is gorgeous, but hammonasset is nice to, and Durham is the largest state fair in the fall 🙂
I love living in CT 🙌
Connecticut is cool.. lived here for 32 years lol
I'm from Connecticut. This is great! There's a lot to see and do here. 👍😎
I love all the experts in the comments section who say how terrible CT is yet they’ve never live anywhere BUT CT. I left and went south 5 years ago. I’m glad to be back and would never think of leaving my home CT again!
A distinction without a difference.
Welcome back to high COL, high taxes, and left wing politics.
Exactly what I was thinking, Connecticut is expensive but I think you'd have to pay me to live in Florida 😂
@@curiousfox2429 No worries. We have 48 other states to choose from. I have my eyes on the Appalachian Mountains.
The story was good but that rise and shine music was dreadful.
Hello nice to meet you how are you doing today how is the weather over there you really look so nice on your profile how is your family hope they are fine?🌹🌹🌹
Hello beautiful how are you doing
After the pandemic? We are still in a pandemic. SMDH
Ct is over 75% vaccinated. Less than 200 cases a day
Not here we are. I stopped wearing my mask two weeks ago.
Grow up in the Mystic area❤️
They only showed the rich areas
If they showed Hartford, Bridgeport, Waterbury, Meriden, New Haven. Feel free to add any other shithole town/city 🤔
@@mariooliveira6780 you mean reality?? Not every area of a state looks Rich, New York is a perfect example. People still live in those areas and shouldn't be look down on.
@@taylorstep1413 You take out Fairfield County and the rest of the state is a bankrupt shithole!!!🚽💩
@@mariooliveira6780 those cities are still not the poorest!! Like those trailer living states👀
@@mariooliveira6780 Hahahaha...that's not true at all..lmao
Omg you HAVE to go to Bridgeport!!!
Northford CT a sleepy village that I love
I'm near that.
SCREW Mystic Pizza…… where's the clip of the best pizza anywhere…… New Haven APIZZA?!
EXACTLY!!
Don't forget Pepe's Pizza in New Haven
@@jeffreydelallo7311 I wrote New Haven, but implying Pepe's. I did find the clip: twitter.com/GMA/status/1402245091398492162
@@jeffreydelallo7311 pepe's or Sally's either one! Hands down best pizza nation wide. And I've made the mistake of ordering pizza in other states. Cali and AZ were hands down the worst. AZ Pizza made me sick. Too used to pepe's lol
Love my state! Specifically, my town of Niantic ⚓️⛵️⛱🐚
I love my village Northford CT
I spent 6 months in Niantic.😉
@Anonymous Yikes! 😂
@@bruisersbeach4905 😆😆
Yikes is right!!
Hello nice to meet you how are you doing today how is the weather over there you really look so nice on your profile how is your family hope they are fine?🌹🌹🌹
The white clam pizzas from Pepe’s…
Yes!
I loved my mourning with my daughter before I would take her to all her medical appointments. I would put this on. Feel connected. Learn thing or two
I also knew I was watching while others were. Now my daughter 17 has had 26 surgeries for her rare disability called Arthrogryposis. I was 17 yrs old when I had her. I’m 34 and starting to design clothes for disabled.
Who said the pandemic was over????
Love my state!❤❤
Just when u visit New Haven....go to Yale Univ area & just exit.....serious "class system" in NH. The working poor can't get descent housing!
New Haven is a bankrupt shithole!!!🚽💩
@@mariooliveira6780 this entire state is.
West Hartford is the best town!!!
I went to school in New London and have been to Mystic more than a few times.
Hello nice to meet you how are you doing today how is the weather over there you really look so nice on your profile how is your family hope they are fine?🌹🌹🌹
Hi Asheigh
!st thing to do when living or visiting CT is to pay the ridiculous amount of high taxes we have here.And yes ive lived here for 47 yrs now..High taxes ,way too much traffic and more and more rude people .Enjoy
Do visit Mashantucket Pequot Museum when in the Mystic area. Largest museum dedicated to Indigenous.
Connecticut native!!!
We certainly are! We just got legalized for Pot today!!
Love mystic pizza
Yall saying the state is nice...that's mostly if your in a rich or coastal area. I live in the coastal part of Connecticut but yet I wanna go somewhere better
The music playing over this was horrible
That pizza boy was fineeee🤣
He really is!!
If you Believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins then Resurrected three days later and is our Lord and Savior you will be saved ! He who is sinless died on the cross for our sins just so we could be here. He is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords from generation to generation! Read your bible daily and Repent!! God bless you and your family!💜 (Not trying to force upon anyone who does not agree) Have a blessed. day!
“How Connecticut is making a comeback after tyrannical government overreach.”
Fixed that for you.
Yes!
Communism
The Mystic pizza isn't the first one lol.
That pizza sucks!….Pepe’s, Sally’s, Modern and maybe Bar pizza!
@@meyokkob458 yes yes and yes! even pizzetta right in mystic is better than mystic pizza but id take pepes over any other pizza in the US

@@joewoodchuck3824 yea your right
Going there in August!!
Us too! We move there in August!
@@jcamillo66 Just curious - why CT? I live in CT & I'm seeing A LOT of out of state license plates from all over the country driving up & down the county I live in.
I moved back to CT 7 months ago… hubby got a terrific job in TN than a new boss and coronavirus came we had to move back to CT. Thank GOD that the housing market sucked for 3 years while we were gone. We moved back into our home in a lil village called Northford. I’m enjoying pizza again
I wish they had cut that ugly music. Hard to hear at times. But beautiful to see CT
Connecticut is really for rich people....as I look at it. Or this video is just face value?! 🙄
It’s really just face value lol there’s a huge poverty gap in CT. I was born and raised in New Haven and I definitely wasn’t rich lol
@@cece12793 I was born and raised in bridgeport and you’re absolutely right lol
Check out Westport CT - ridiculous what you get for you taxes
Hiii I'm abhi From india
I live in ct yall 💅😏
I left that fucking state and now live in China. China has its faults (what place doesn't?) but I made some good friend here and learned some things along the way. Connecticut didn't offer much in the way of "friendship" and there is not much to see, or do, to be honest, and yes things are quite expensive there but that is the price you pay for living in an area with a higher standard of living. Connecticut is not terrible, there are places that are much worse, but it's certainly not an area to develop long lasting friendships or stable social life. I would say the only bright spot for me would be the pizza....New Haven has the best by far in the region.
As if mystic isn’t busy enough in the first place. Just don’t tell them about Chester and Essex.
Lmao 😆 oh yeah go hit Bridgeport or New Haven, Still. Dumps .
Hello nice to meet you how are you doing today how is the weather over there you really look so nice on your profile how is your family hope they are fine?🌹🌹🌹
How are you doing
"How Connecticut is making a comeback (during the) pandemic" motivate us, the people of America, to redouble our efforts to rapidly find out at any given moment, including even while On-Line, who among us are unwittingly contagious (i.e. pre-symptomatic or asymptomatic) in order to #ConvinceItForward for them to call their doctor and to self-quarantine per CDC guidelines in hopes of stopping this pandemic instead of having more #MourningInAmerica. Thus, we're hoping for the best while preparing for the worse-case scenario of the Alpha lineage mutations and others like the Gamma, Beta, Epsilon, Iota, & Delta lineage mutations combining to form hybrids that render current COVID vaccines no longer effective.
Are you serious? Look. It's time to open up! This is freaking crazy!
@@jcamillo66 , I am simply wonderfully hungry and hope you, Jess, and others reading my comment at the top, also have a healthy appetite too. So how are you ?
@@jcamillo66, your not being able to reply appropriately over the past 5 hours since being greeted here means, Jess, you're #StatCOVID19Test **positive** indicating that it's possible you're unwittingly contagious (i.e. pre-symptomatic) needing to call your doctor & to self-quarantine per CDC guidelines.
@@HeartDocAndrew your response to jess is total b.s. complete and total b.s now you are just fearmongering. Shame on you.
🍂🧡🍂🥳
Talk about biden and Harris and the disaster they made at the border and how states have to send aid to Texas to stop it
If the schools were up to there standers down south GA i would get out of this boring state Connecticut and relocate back down south
Hyderabad
they tax you to death in Ct
i cant wait until the
unitedstates is free again.
Connecticut is run by Communists
Mystic Pizza isn’t even that good. And they just showed all the places that you need money at. CT is overly priced and high taxed.
Fairytale.
If you come here, be prepared to pay some of the highest electric bills in the country and taxed to death
Real Connecticuters knows the truth CT aint shit lol
If you think CT is a good place to live, you don't live here. It's a NO FUN state. Taxes, taxes, and hidden taxes. Sure they make it look great. Trust me, it's not.
Uhmm , nope 👎
Born and raised in CT , high taxes , liberal politicians , identity politics , excessive virtue signaling and a mass exodus of residents leaving
Try opening a business here ... good luck
Report on that without that annoying raspy voice
