Best fit: affordability-focused movers and healthcare workers

Norwich's clearest case is for affordability-focused buyers seeking Connecticut's most accessible Tier A price points, and for healthcare-sector workers connected to Backus Hospital's real, regional trauma-center role.

Good fit: Mohegan Sun-connected workers

Norwich's real, short drive to Mohegan Sun in neighboring Montville makes it a real, practical option for workers connected to that resort's employment base.

Weaker fit: buyers wanting unambiguous crime or tax data

Buyers who need a single, unambiguous crime or property-tax figure should note this record's disclosed disagreements on both, and Norwich's real, unusual multi-district tax structure.
