[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I lived in Maine for a dozen years before and after law school in DC - attended Orono for undergraduate and graduate degrees and lived in the Orono/Bangor area and also in coastal Hancock County. Maine is heartbreakingly beautiful, I miss it a lot. I wish I could have found work there and lived there forever but at the same time I don’t. Yes you can find cultural experiences and some progressive people to hang with but there is still a lot of backward thinking up there and it is a hard place to be old unless you have plenty of money because social supports are abysmal for elders and other vulnerable people. [/quote] PP here who is the native Mainer. This is exactly why we won’t move until after our kid is in college - we would not dream of sacrificing the experiences and opportunities she is having by growing up in DC - and also why we will probably keep our place in DC even though I do have lots of friends and family up there.
