[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] OP here. Thanks everyone! The job is in Framingham itself. We could afford 1M or thereabouts in house, if we sell our house in Bethesda. My husband is on the fence because he currently has a 10 minute commute, versus whatever he would have over there, and he's afraid of the cold winters (his native country is tropical!). But the job seems interesting and stable. I stay home. Anyone care to comment on the weather up north :-) ? [/quote] From what I know (friends who live there), it has similar spring and autumn. Snow in winter more likely than here, summer less humid than here. Are you a southerner (if so, you might not like it -- it is not a place where people "quickly adjust", from what I have been told). [/quote] I come from a cold and rainy country. I think I could handle it. My husband loves warmth, though, and that's our concern. [/quote] 14:55 again. I find it much drearier than it is here during the winter. The snow never seems to melt but the roads and sidewalks are wet for a long time. It may only be 5 or 10 degrees colder than the DC area, but it feels much colder, for longer, to me. They do have much better equipment than we do for clearing snow, and things don't close down nearly as often as they do here. It's rare for my niece to get a snow day, but she has had at least 1 per winter the past few winters. [/quote]
