    "It’s a drive to anywhere. No public transportation. I’m lucky and only commute 4 miles but my job is part time with poor pay. For a real job you have to drive 30-45 mins to a larger more populated area. "

    "We are 25 minutes from major highways . Farming community so smelly and farm tractors on roads ar commuting times. Tractor trailer training school nearby also uses our roads. Main road through town is becoming a very busy area with a lot of businesses and traffic, very uncharacteristic of what Ellington represents."

    "Takes 20 minutes to get to the highways. Very rural, passes by cornfields and cow farm. Grocery, pharmacy, hardware and gasoline stores are 15 minutes away. Close to Massachusetts border and not a long drive to Connecticut or Rhode Island Beaches. Also a short drive to Northern New England for winter skiing."

    "The area that I live in is not good for walking dogs as there are no sidewalks. I do see people walking their dog at Arbor Park in the center of town. Most homes in Ellington have sufficient property to allow the dog to have plenty of outdoor space roam. There are also a number of hiking trails in the area that allow well behaved dogs on a leash."
