[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are headed to Northampton in western Massachusetts.

Mass General has a hospital in Northampton to give access to quality healthcare.  
Nice access to trails- there is a fantastic bike path
Local food culture that we like
Strong congregation in our faith
The Y is basic but has everything we need
Closer to skiing than other places we were considering.
Near friends and family
Will probably find ourselves moderates in the local politics 
Near Hartford airport and close enough to Logan for longer haul trips
Property taxes will be about double so we are budgeting about half our current house selling price so it will be about the same in total
We like winter, but will probably travel during mud season [/quote]

Interesting choice.  Have spent some time in the area (DS went to boarding school not too far from there) and played hockey.  We found the medical care lacking, at least for urgent issues, and the general area depressing.  I presume you've spent time there?[/quote]
