I live in the area you are talking about. We love it here. People are extremely polite. They do tend to keep to themselves as others have mentioned. The most you will deal with is probably seeing yard signs with candidates you don’t like. One in particular but I won’t name names. The good thing is, you will also see a lot of signs supporting blue viewpoints.
As with anywhere, you may run into the odd individual once in a while who goes out of their way to make their beliefs known to you in person. However, it is very rare and usually benign. I am saying this as a cis white male though so your experience may be different.
If I can make a recommendation on where to live, we love Glastonbury and South Glastonbury. However, if you don’t mind going slightly out of that area, the Portland/South Glastonbury line has the best of both worlds. Quiet area but close to Glastonbury, Hartford and Middletown. Can pretty much get to all major highways from there in 10 minutes or so. Also, the prices tend to be a bit cheaper and I think taxes are still slightly lower.
