Things to plan around
Thompson's narrow rural roads and long gravel driveways can mean a shuttle fee if a large moving truck can't get down your driveway; ask ahead whether your street requires one. Basic liability coverage pays out very little per item; a $1,000 television that weighs 10 pounds, for example, nets only about $6 if it's damaged, so ask about Full Value Protection for anything valuable. The hourly clock can keep running during breaks and sometimes during the return drive to the company's base, so clarify exactly when billing starts and stops. Skip the vague phone estimate and ask for an in-home or video walkthrough so the company can hand you a not-to-exceed, binding quote instead.

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 Northeastern Connecticut Planning rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 46% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
