study

When I was growing up, a job in law enforcement was considered a great gig. It was a stable way to earn a living, and police were respected members of the community. You don’t need to be super plugged into current events to know that the job doesn’t carry the same reputation it once did

All year long, I’m buried in research and data, looking for stories that help shape Connecticut’s identity. If you live here, you know our state isn’t just a cliché of yachts and country clubs. Still, I’m often surprised to find entire regions in the U.S. that are even more expensive to live in than some areas here in the Nutmeg State.

Compared to faster-moving states, like Mississippi where homes fly off the market, Connecticut’s pace is definitely on the slower side

Sometimes it pays to be boring, we're not on the whacky list so we can sit on the sidelines and judge. Who am I kidding? I know this state way too well to believe we're boring in the bedroom. Connecticut residents are just really good at hiding their filthy secrets.

According to a study from Hello Millions, Connecticut is a ridiculous place to live when it comes to wealth. What would you need to make to be considered in the Top 10% of the State's earners?

MoneyGeek and MSN just released the results of a new study that checked out 211 small U.S. cities (populations between 63k and 100k) to see which ones are on the rise. It appears the lawless swamp (Florida) had a bunch of big winners, and in a lot of these top cities, people aren’t just moving in, they’re staying.

According to a new study, drug abuse is still a huge problem in the U.S., even though we’ve technically been “at war” with it since the '70s. By the way, how is that war going? Are we winning, because I have not heard of any parades being scheduled.

The best line in every documentary is when some nearly dead man wearing suspenders shares his memories of his neighborhood in the 60's. Every single time this person will say, it was the kind of place where you didn't need to lock your doors at night. Then, quick transition to a montage of local news stories that tell the most horrific short story you've ever heard.

To see where renters are catching a break (and where they’re not), WalletHub looked at over 180 cities, comparing how much people earn to how much they pay in rent and Connecticut took another cold blast of reality to the face-piece.

What am I always saying on the I-95 Morning Show? The Greater-Danbury area is the best region in the country, that is what I always say. What is hilarious about it, is you would not know we were even here if you had to rely on traditional Connecticut media. The region is ignored as much as possible until you start digging into quality-of-life issues and that is when the truth reveals itself.
