Ah...Waterbury my home town. Way back in the 60s when I was growing up there were no-go zones. Never go to the north end after dark or the blacks will attack you. Watch out going through South Main street where the Puerto Ricans ruled. Italians, Irish and the Polish gave up their beefs to unite as whites. Waterbury is less a melting pot than a piss pot.
How is the nearest big city?
Better than Bridgeport.
I was born in Willimantic in the 50’s . It was a nice small city back then . I read recently that now it was voted one of the worst places to live in CT . I left in 1971 and have never looked back . My buddy , who drives through Willi once in a while says you hardly ever see a white person on Main Street these days .
