The early history of various crews or official regimes and independent gangs who tried their hand (and lady luck) at grabbing hold of the brass ring that was, and is, Connecticut’s vibrant underworld.
Nestled between New York and Rhode Island is Connecticut, affectionately known as “The Nutmeg State.” With a total population of just over 3,500,000, it is the southernmost state in the New England region of the northeastern United States.
With the nation’s highest per-capita income and medium household income, the Nutmeg State has always been a vibrant hub for families and commerce since its creation by European settlers in the early 1600s.
In fact, Connecticut was one of the first 13 colonies and had written and established documents that are considered to be the first constitutions in America…it is rich with our American history!
Running the gamut from cozy, quaint New England-style cottages to breathtaking and expansive mansions that sit on sprawling estates, Connecticut offers some of the most desirable housing, amenities, and living conditions in the nation.
Along with Maine, Vermont, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts, Connecticut rounds out the six states that comprise what is widely known as the New England area of the Northeastern United States.
Overall, Connecticut is considered a wealthy and highly desirable place to live, work, and raise a family.
But although it can boast one of the top economies in the nation, and many have flocked to its soil to settle down, raise a family, and call it their own, the Nutmeg State has the dubious honor of never having had a resident, homegrown Mafia Family of their own.
