I would like to move to Maine sometime in the near future. Currently,

>Wanting to live in Maine

there's a reason Stephen King makes all his most famous stories set there. It's well known to be both creepy as shit and haunted to fuck.

Mainer here; can confirm as haunted.
Vibe in some areas is probably more rural and redneckish than you're comfortable with coming from the swamps of the Potomac. Some townships are inhabited mostly by hippies, artists, and summer people -- those are tolerable I guess, good places to raise kids. Then you get places like Rockland and Bar Harbor, where out-of-staters are literally buying up entire streets of houses to rent out to summer tourists. The remaining locals live in homeless camps and ghettos. Avoid.

people that hate outsiders being driven from their homes by people who are fairly similar. everything is Maine is either extremely expensive or cheaper than you'd expect in New England, but living there would burn through money.

For those of us over the age of 12 who don't believe in spoooooopy ghosts?

That's surprising. Why is Maine so expensive? It seems like rural bumfuck.

I love Bar Harbor :(

Mainards prepare your anusi.
Now that pot is legal you are young to have a HUGE influx of hipsters.

Eh, ever since hiking has become hipster/mainstream all of the best states are overrun. Montana and Wyoming are pretty much the only ones left.

Oh I do too; I live here.
I just hear old folks talk about the way things used to be in this town, before we got >3 million tourists each year, and I get bummed.

It's too late. We've lost Portland.
