Recently I was discussing real estate in my marketplace with another agent and came to the realization that not everyone is familiar with my section of the state. Most people from other parts of the country think of Connecticut as one of those tiny specks on the map.
Land wise we are the 3rd smallest state consisting of just over 5000 square miles. To put it in perspective if every state was our size all 50 could fit into the area of Texas. Connecticut is a mid-size state based on population. Our 3.5 million residents make us larger than Vermont, New Hampshire & Maine combined.
The advantage of being a smaller state is the ability to drive to nearby attractions rather quickly. My location is about the mid-point in the state on the southern shoreline. Within about 1-1/2 hours we can be in Providence, Springfield or New York City.
My primary area consists of the shoreline towns of Branford, Guilford and Madison plus the more affordable towns of North Haven & North Branford. Since I am a Connecticut native I am very familiar with many other parts of New Haven County and can offer assistance on an as needed basis from West Haven to Westbrook along the shore or Woodbridge to Wallingford for interior towns.

Hi Dan,
Nice map you got there, now everyone has a better idea where you are. I love that I can get to my favorite place in CT in about 1 1/2 from my house here in MA! ;)
Maggie.... Yale is a nice area to visit but as most Ivy League schools a bit pricey to attend.
George... Heading to the city it's best to drop the car in New Haven and hop the train. Even took the train to my Fairfield Half Marathon since parking was scarce.
Susie... I glad to be number one on your list of Connecticut Agents.
Suzanne... You must drive fast.... thought it was about two hours.... :-)
Thesa.... Four miles is pinpointing your location pretty close.....
Diane... We do have some nice country side.... I'll have to capture some of the fall colors at they appear.
Teri... You mean Sarah Coopers's Town? She has a way of explaining her position... Goes something like look at your right fist, point your thumb out like a hitcher and raise your middle finger....Do you see it..... The shape of West Virginia..... LOL On a serious note your son is correct, we don't hold on to any sports teams. Hockey was the only one but the Hartford Whalers left years ago. The baseball hall of fame is about 4 hours away. BTW... Does WWFcount? The World Headquarters is in Stamford.
