Waterbury City Hall — Attraction in Waterbury

I recently went to city hall with my elderly father to have property taxes assessed and the woman at the front desk who greeted me along with the police officer was so very nice and she went out of her way to personally call and make an appointment because I was not aware appointments were necessary. My father is 87 and it’s difficult to get him out so It was a task to get there but she took the time to give him a chair to sit and then to go out of her way to get us to see the tax assessor. The building is beautiful and she knew all about the history of the building which my dad loved hearing since he was born and raised in the brass city. Overall our experience even in covid times were very pleasant. Wonderful experience with the young lady at the front desk and the police man was kind and the tax assessor was very patient and professional with my elderly father. Thank you....

I'm trying to move out asap and I've been a resident for a long time but it's not worth it ... rents are going up ... you can't afford anything... house prices have gone up ... it's just not a place to...
