No city in Connecticut
reaches the 250,000 population threshold for the America’s Most Literate
Cities study. But we did want to learn how at least 3 of our major cities
would fare in the ranking, as well as to learn about the conditions for

same metrics, here is how Hartford, New Britain, and New Haven would rank.
