Plot twist. It’s not all a class war. They wanted to send Danbury kids to Bethel… Bethel has increasing enrollment. They do not have the room to take on kids from Danbury. It was an unrealistic ask.

OP asked the opinion of Peruvians in America. She gave her husband’s perspective. No need to go off on her about it. She was answering the question.

Reply to Tell me about Danbury... by bastetswhiskers
Do you have kids? The elementary schools are zoned by neighborhood so there are of course some that are preferable.
I can say from experience, the area around Great Plain is a pretty solid area. Reasonably quiet, residential side streets. Close to Federal and Padanaram.
Unless you live very near the airport, you would never even know there’s an airport in Danbury. Not sure which baseball fields you mean.
Huge Brazilian population. Also significant Central American population. Overall a good city as far as cities go. 🤷🏻‍♀️

That’s fine. But let their name hit the media and their friends, neighbors, and coworkers find out the type of person they are.

They did. By the Waterbury train station. Doesn’t mean they can’t try. Probably wouldn’t be too hard to narrow down friends and family in Waterbury. Especially if he gives up any info in questioning.

I’m sure he is far from CT at this point. In a country this populous, it’s not that hard. He definitely has help though - since he can’t use debit or credit cards and provably has to stay indoors as much as possible.
Hell, he could be in Mexico or Canada by now.

I’ve never taken it to NH, but if you take 8 all the way up, it turns into a rural route into MA where you can pick up the Mass Pike in Lee. This is how I go to Rochester, NY - Mass Pike to I-90.

This weekend was very weird, even for Newtown. It was exceptionally trafficky at all times.

Route 25 is an option but it would put you on 84 at Exit 9 and you’d still hit the major slowdown around 7.
Route 7 might be a better option, you pick it up in Norwalk and it will take you to Exit 3, pretty close to the NY border and theoretically past most of the Danbury traffic. Only challenge is that the speed limit is naturally lower and there are lights. Plus no real opportunities for passing if you get stuck behind that student driver.

Reply to Divorce Experts? by Automatic-Ear9267
Not an expert at all but double check on whether or not you can even file in CT. Sometimes there are residency requirements tied to length of time. My cousin faced these issues a few years ago, but I can’t remember the details. Only that one state where they lived was easier to file than the other - they moved back and forth between VA and CT a few times.

Upper Fairfield County has a fair few. Bethel/Newtown/New Fairfield areas.

Maple Row tends to be the most recommended, at least in western CT. The trees are pricy though. You pay for the experience.

Worth it to find some bandwidth. It doesn’t take long. Someone posted the link to energize CT above.
