What the hell, no we don’t have any sundown towns! Take your racist ass somewhere else, you are unwelcome here, fucking move to Alabama or Russia you piece of shit.

Awfully presumptuous of you to assume I’m asking because I’m racist and looking to specifically live in a sundown town. You can take your trolling self elsewhere.
I ask because it’s still a very real thing and those just happen to be the places I would like to stay away from.
But truly, thank you for your completely unhelpful comment.

I mean you can understand how it maybe read that way, and I’m sorry. Also maybe Andover CT is someplace to avoid.

Actually I don’t see how it could be perceived that way at all but apology accepted and thank you for the input about Andover.

>Connecticut’s zoning laws maintain the status quo economic and racial segregation. The word “segregation” might conjure images of separate lines and “Whites only” signs. Some might even think, “That doesn’t happen anymore.” But the harsh and horrifying reality is that it absolutely does. Segregation today looks like restricting people’s choice of where to live. Municipalities use zoning codes to prevent certain people from living in their neighborhood while welcoming others. Although the signs aren’t posted, the message remains: Whites only.
