Reply to comment by paddyboombotz in New Haven vs Durham NC by bahtdog

Thanks for the info! That definitely sounds more my speed culturally. Would you say that NH is more urban/walkable in feel than Durham? Also, if you need to make trips outside the downtown core to shop or run errands, is the traffic situation comparable between them?

New Haven is extremely walkable. Like the definition of walkable city lol

Yes way more. Durham is spread out. Durham to me seemed much more gentrified than new haven too, although that’s hitting new haven pretty hard recently. CT is a really small state so everything is pretty close. If I have to drive 45 min soMewhere i piss and moan about it. Traffic is pretty horrible in both cities.
