Connecticut, the Constitution State, has developed a reputation over the years as being rich. Being the fourth wealthiest state in the country, people who retire with a large personal wealth often head to Connecticut. The small state is made up of many small towns, meaning everyone aims to know everything about their neighbors.
The residents may come off as rude for a few reasons. For one, tourists flock to the coast during the busy season, which can make it more difficult for locals to grab their favorite coffee or get a table at their preferred restaurant. And don't forget, if you're not a UConn fan, don't even think of talking sports when you visit.
