Stratford's tight coastal streets near the shore can mean a long-carry fee if the truck can't park close to your door. Always confirm whether the estimate is binding, since a non-binding quote can legally increase once the crew arrives. Disclose stairs, pianos, or other heavy items upfront to avoid surprises.

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 Greater Bridgeport Planning Regio rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 25% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
