Wallingford

Yes, it is a fairly wealthy town in Connecticut, but nothing compared to Fairfield County. Contrary to what most believe, most residents do no flaunt their money, but some do. There are plenty of large expensive homes, but there are a lot of small, medium sized homes. Many people do, in fact, have second homes (the cape, vineyard, Vermont, Florida) and many vacation any chance they get. But you have to understand that this is not the case for everyone in town. The stereotypical Wallingford kid is polo popping and has a nice car, but again, it's not everyone. College is big...very big. A schools reputation goes a long way in this town. Ivies and mini-ivies are common, but a ton of kids go to Uconn. 95% of Wallingford high school students go on to college. Schools in town are very competitive, if u have a B average (3.0 GPA) you almost always in the bottom half of your class. Parties are also a big thing. BMWs, Mercedes, Lexus, Land Rovers, and so on are not uncommon, but there are plenty of Chevys, fords, and jeeps. Snobbery is something you have to get used to, but not everyone is a stuck up. My point is that Wallingford is not filthy rich. There are plenty of average families who work hard and live modestly. It's a great town.If you wanna see rich go to Fairfield County.

Bro, Wallingford Kids are so stuck up!
