New haven is weird bc u get people in living in very different income brackets living in very close quarters with one another.

At times living there it felt a bit like some sort of dystopian fantasy setting.

I would say it's a great place to be if you're going right from college with a well paying job.

It's not a great place to be if you're young, making less than 6 figures.

I bartended on crown and college for a while - financially speaking I was fine - nonetheless waiting on Yale students and affiliates made me bitter to no end. My blood boils still just thinking about it.

Most of the under 30s do not know true suffering and it shows.

Not worth it. Left the city and moved back to Boston where I grew up.

Tldr I had a hard time making friends
