[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a lovely area. Very friendly, lots to do. A great mix of urbanish (Northampton and Amherst are both great) and rural. Has everything you need -Target, Trader Joe’s, etc. It’s a bit isolated though. You can get to NYC easily via the train, but you have to take a bus or car to Boston. [/quote] Agree with those. I believe some of the colleges have Zip Car (or at least they used to) and some kids have cars. Otherwise, Boston is a bus trip with an infrequent schedule or a on e a day train. NYC is easier to get to by train. As far as flights, Hartford is the most convenient airport. Overall, my kid had a great 4 years there and always found something to do. As far as opiates, it did not seem bad to me. I noticed nothing that impacts my college student. There did not seem to be a lot of rehab advertisements or things like that, which I have seen other places.[/quote]
