Everyone knows by now that General Electric is moving its corporate HQ from Fairfield, Conn., to the Seaport District. That's about 800 people settling in to our fair region. Many will house hunt. Many will be shocked. Some, though, won't be. How do Fairfield prices stack up against Boston ones for similarly sized properties?
