Not really. Cape Cod has incredible natural beauty. Having grown up there I can say that some of the population is beautiful as well. For some, this place works. For others, it can really suck. There is a lot of abuse (drugs, alcohol, and probably the associated human abuse that spins off of that). It is an un-real place in that during the summer months the place is inundated with people from all over the world, many of whom are there to escape their reality, party, lose themselves among people they don't really know, act like ass holes and such. In the winter, the place shuts off and the locals begin house party season or they move to other parts of the country to find work. If you own a business, some types of businesses in some towns, I say good luck dealing with the Historic Preservation Maniacs. My whole family lives there and I am moving out to Oregon. I can't subject my kids to the insanity of the place. Too bad, because it really is quite beautiful apart from all the BS.
