History and Trivia[edit]

Should the last two sentences ("Mystic is located along the Mystic River and is found by many tourists to be fascinating. When visiting please use the cross walks or you could anger local residents.") be removed, since they are about Mystic, CT and not about Stonington, CT?

Actual Historicity[edit]

-Comment on Above - Forgive me, I am not particularly familiar with MediaWiki's Syntax Furthermore, do these statements represent a non-neutral point of view? I am a resident of the area and quite frankly, Mystic is an almost entirely fabricated community whose historicity is dwarfed by the surrounding areas such as Norwich, New London, and Stonington Borough. Most of the buildings are in fact new, with "historical" architecture and naming conventions being enforced by zoning regulations. In fact, Mystic is not a proper town, but a census and commercial subdivision divided by the Mystic River between Groton and Stonington. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.234.228.206 (talk) 21:27, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Extreme depopulation[edit]

Where did everyone go that the population nosedived to 900 this decade? Is the estimate near accurate? Heff01 (talk) 02:04, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
