How often do you land on Connecticut Avenue?
That makes it the 14th least-landed-on square of 39 on the board.
On a board where every square was equally likely, each would take 2.5% of turns. Connecticut Avenue takes 2.15% — only 0.86× the flat rate. The board isn’t flat because Go To Jail, the two card decks, and the doubles rule all pump traffic around it unevenly.
Why this number
No Chance or Community Chest card sends anyone here. Every token that lands on Connecticut Avenue got there on the dice alone, which is most of the reason it sits where it does — the squares above it in the ranking are nearly all collecting card traffic on top of their dice traffic.
What it earns
Connecticut Avenue is part of the light blue group (Oriental Avenue, Vermont Avenue and Connecticut Avenue), costs $120 to buy and $50 per house. Fully built with hotels, the group pays for itself in about 25 opponent turns — 2nd fastest group of 8.
| Development | Rent | Group payback |
|---|---|---|
| No houses | $8 | 317 turns |
| 1 house | $40 | 186 turns |
| 2 houses | $100 | 88 turns |
| 3 houses | $300 | 36 turns |
| 4 houses | $450 | 29 turns |
| Hotel | $600 | 25 turns |
Rent is for this property alone; payback is for the whole light blue group, since you can’t build houses without owning all of it.
