Talk:Naugatuck, Connecticut

nobody fucking calls it "the tuck"

Seriously, I have lived here my entire goddamn life, and I have not once heard a human being refer to this town as "The Tuck."

I agree I've lived here for 20 years and never heard someone call it the Tuck. So unless someone can source it I've removed it. 71.234.221.166 (talk) 19:59, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

Sources for this?

"As American manufacturing declined in the late 20th Century, the mills closed and the town fell on largely hard times. Now, with the expansion of the suburbs, especially in New Haven and Fairfield County, the town is largely a bedroom community for the lower-middle class. With this, many of Naugatuck's neighbors are fairly wealthy. Middlebury and Oxford are affluent towns that have higher performing school districts, but the price to live in these suburbs is high. Currently, many new more expensive homes are being built as people from Fairfield county and other areas are looking for more affordable housing and convenient access to major highways."

Please clarify

"Currently, many new more expensive homes are being built as people from Fairfield county and other areas are looking for more affordable housing and convenient access to major highways." How does that make sense? They're building expensive houses so people can have affordable houses? -Anon

It certainly could be worded better, but this is stating that relatively more expensive homes (i.e. more expensive compared to the average Naugatuck home) are being built, but are still considerably cheaper than Fairfield and New York. For example, the median home value in Naugatuck is approximately $220,000, but there are several new developments with new homes in the $350,000 range. These homes would go for twice as much or more in many Fairfield towns. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yankee6574 (talk • contribs) 18:28, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
