Located in the northeastern United States, Connecticut is the third smallest and fourth most densely populated of the fifty states.

Much of the southern and western part of the state are in the New York City metropolitan area, making a daily commute to a New York City job possible. Fairfield County in particular is within commuting distance. Some businesses have moved their businesses away from NYC, notably technology startups and investment firms.

Connecticut is known for its production of transportation equipment, machinery, chemicals, and aircraft. Companies such as General Electric and United Technologies, are based in Connecticut.

The state also calls fourteen of 2012′s Fortune 500 companies, including Aetna, Cigna, Xerox, and Stanley Black & Decker.
