What to Plan For
- Most local crews add a travel time or fuel surcharge on top of the hourly rate.
- Groton's naval submarine base traffic and summer I-95 congestion can slow crews during shift changes, adding to your hours.
- Ask for a binding not-to-exceed estimate based on an in-home or video walkthrough.
- Moving into a condo building usually requires a Certificate of Insurance naming the association as additionally insured.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Southeastern Connecticut Planning rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 38% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
