Is the 2% rule in Connecticut realistic?

[Bryan Dorsey]

Currently looking for a buy and hold in CT, but would prefer to stay out of the cities (Waterbury, Hartford, New Haven, Bridgeport etc.) is the 2% rule realistic outside of those areas? I know it is just a rule of thumb, but looking for our first property we are trying to stay conservative and are having trouble finding something that even approaches the 2% rule outside of the cities.

@Bryan Dorsey I think the 2% rule is a myth unless you want to play in class D neighborhoods.
