How many miles is it from New Haven CT to New York City NY?
Using the Grand Central Terminal as a destination in NYC, it is between 30-40 miles, depending on your departure point in Greenwich. The amount of time it would take depends on mode of transportation and time of day.
Is Greenwich a suburb of New York City?
It's not far from New York City, but it is part of the state of Connecticut, not the state of New York. So, technically, no, it's not a suburb of New York City, but for practical purposes, yes it is.
New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut make up what we locals call the "tristate area."
What are 3 major cities in Connecticut besides Hartford?
The 3 major cities in Connecticut besides Hartford are Norwalk, Stamford and Waterbury.
What is the time difference between Vancouver and Connecticut US?

What is the distance in miles from Hawaii to Fairfield Connecticut?
A flight from Hawaii to Fairfield, Connecticut would take about 9 hours to complete. There is approximately 4,991 miles between the two locations.
Do Connecticut laws allow out of state motorcycle permit holders to ride in Connecticut?
All 50 US states recognize drivers licenses from other states. Otherwise you would never be able to drive past your state borders without taking a test in all your neighboring states. This is an unnecessary burden on the individual and on interstate commerce, especially in smaller states where the state line is never more than an hour's drive away.
Although it is the responsibility of each driver to find how other state's laws differ, your license is still valid. For example, Connecticut and Massachusetts differ on who has the right of way in a traffic circle-- those already in it or vehicles entering the circle. (I can never remember which, but luckily Connecticut has done away with most of them. Strangely, there were a lot of accidents, perhaps from confusion over differing r-o-w laws?)
How do refer to someone from Connecticut?
The correct form is, according to R.M. Theis's Standard Lexicon of Titlology (1957, 2nd Edn., Oxon), for a man a "Connection" or, for a female, a "Connect". My own preference is to refer to either male or female as a "Connection" and to refer to both males and females as "Connections". It would appear that Theis accepted "Connections" as being the term for a group of either males or females from the area of Connecticut.
An indignant addendum:
I've lived in Connecticut for 40 years and never heard of this. And except for this exact answer being repeated on other sites, there is almost no mention when googling this reference. Seven hits in all of Google. Even if the above answer is not plagiarism, the answer is not at all a generally accepted one.
How long does it take to get from Connecticut to SydneyAustralia?
The flight from Connecticut to Sydney, Australia is 20 and a half hours. There is approximately 10, 002 miles between the location.
Not silver, copper-nickel
Not 1788, either. That's the date Connecticut was admitted to the union.
Not worth anything more than 25 cents.
Bottom line: Take a look at all of the other state quarters that have been minted in the last 10 years. ALL OF THEM have both the date of issue and the date that the state joined the union.
Is Connecticut south of Massachusetts?
Yes. Connecticut is south of Massachusetts on Long Island Sound, and so is Rhode Island to its east.
What is the river that runs through Massachusetts and Connecticut?
The Connecticut River...How come no one's ever solved this ><?
