Unfortunately, you're correct. There isn't much torecommend the city if you're looking for nightlife or outdoorexperiences. Real estate prices, however, are reasonable for theNortheast and it is a relatively short trip to more vibrantlocations.

Mystic

Unlike Hartford, Mystic is town with a ton of culture. Locatedon the Atlantic seaboard, the town has a strong seafaringhistory and takes pride in it. With colonial architecture, thecity is bursting with color as the leaves turn in the fall.
