Private Swap - Connecticut

Connecticut is a state in the New England region of the northeastern United States. Connecticut is the 29th most populous state, with 3.5 million residents, and is ranked 48th in size by area, making it the 4th most densely populated state. Called the Constitution State and the Nutmeg State, Connecticut has a long history dating from early colonial times and was influential in the development of the federal government of the United States.

Connecticut enjoys a temperate climate due to its long coastline on Long Island Sound. This has given the state a strong maritime tradition. In the 18th and 19th centuries, Connecticut had ready access to raw materials which helped to develop a strong manufacturing industry, and financial organizations flourished. This prosperity has helped give Connecticut the highest per capita income, Human Development Index (0.962), and median household income in the country. (source) Thank you Ron!
