Reply to comment by Pancrat in Me and my partner from England wanting to visit Connecticut by woodyrg14

Fella, I just want to see how a town in America operates. The less tourists=more authenticity. I can vouch that where I'm from has never seen a tourist, and it's the most pure English place in our entire country.

As a European guy who lives in CT, I think it’s a good compromise between “seeing America” and not being surrounded by tourists, you’d also be close enough to visit Boston/New York for a 1-day trip if you guys wanted to

That guy is a bit much, but to be fair there isn't a quintessential American town. They don't compare. The towns in New England are nothing like towns in the south. Especially the coast line of CT which has the wealthier areas. If you want to see a wealthy New England town, that's one thing. But it won't be a good representation of an "American town".

A quant New England Town is very much an American staple. The Hallmark channel loves them.
