I still live in Connecticut. There are only two reasons why we'll be moving out of state in the next year:

1. Our employer-paid health insurance coverage ends in the late spring, and we can't afford to pay the premiums, AND the mortgage. With hubby out of work, we can't refinance our mortgage, so we'll be forced to sell our home.

2. We were planning on moving south in a couple of years anyway because he would have retired, if his department wasn't eliminated first. It has nothing to do with taxes. Our taxes are liveable and if hubby had been able to stay at his job for another 2 years, we'd be retiring with medical paid for into Medicare, in another 2-4 years. We'd be moving south because that's where hubby wants to live, not because of taxes in Connecticut.
