Britain Moving Quote
New Britain is 9 miles southwest of Hartford. In 2006, the
estimated population in the city was 71,254. The city is 34.7 square miles and
the elevation is 167 feet above sea level. The "Hardware City"
is an appropriate nickname for the city because of the history as a
manufacturing and because the headquarters for Stanley Works is in the city.
The large Polish population prompted the nickname, "New Britski". It's also
known as "Hard Hittin' New Britain" because the city has a popular high school
football team.
