Rural quirks to plan around
Litchfield's narrow country roads, long gravel driveways, and historic homes with tight staircases can mean a semi-truck can't reach your door, and some companies need a smaller shuttle truck for an extra fee, so describe your driveway when you get a quote. Late fall through early spring brings icy rural roads and possible weather delays, while peak summer weekends book up months ahead at premium prices. Always get a binding not-to-exceed estimate in writing rather than a verbal ballpark. Heavy items common in rural properties, such as oak pianos, pool tables, oversized safes, and workshop equipment, usually carry a specialized surcharge, so list them on your inventory sheet. Confirm any mover you're considering is registered with the Connecticut Department of Transportation.

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 Northwest Hills Planning Region rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 41% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
