How far is New York from Connecticut driving?

I work in New York, but I’d really rather not live there. I’ve seen some super-cute houses in Connecticut, but I’m worried I might have too long of a commute. How far is it to drive from New York to Connecticut?

Depending on where you want to live in
Connecticut
and where you work in
New York
, your drive wouldn’t necessarily be far, as the states share a border.
But let’s assume you work in New York City and are looking to buy a home in New Haven, in that case, to get to New York from Connecticut driving is 80 miles, which will take about a 1.5-hours without traffic.
Regardless of where in CT you put down roots, you’ll need to be sure you’re covered for your commute.
