Five towns made Money Magazine’s list of the Top 100 Small Towns: Cheshire (73), Portland (88), Simsbury (39), South Windsor (38), and Tolland (37).

I see that Fairfield County was shut out and New Haven County nearly so. Perhaps the high cost of, well, everything, has finally caught up with them. What do you think?
