Based on its colonial constitution, Connecticut's official nickname, adopted in 1959, is "The Constitution State." It’s also unofficially known as "The Nutmeg State,” which may have come from its sailors returning from voyages with nutmeg, and George Washington gave Connecticut the title of "The Provisions State,"because of the material aid it contributed to the Revolutionary War effort. Connecticut is also known as "The Land of Steady Habits,” which apparently applies in its marriages staying together. With a divorce rate of only 3 percent, Connecticut has the second lowest in the U.S., perhaps because it traditionally also has one of the lowest marriage rates in the U.S. Regardless, if you find yourself in Connecticut needing a divorce, check the city list below and find a good lawyer to help with your proceedings in this equitable property state.
