| All 4 Seasons! - 6/18/2007
Having four seasons is what I like best about the state of Maine. In addition, there aren't many other places where you can experience a variety of landscapes - from forests to meadows, from mountains to the coast. Of course you do have to deal with a blackfly or several dozen. ;-) .....but then, it's a small price to pay for such diversity!

| Expensive Maine - 8/6/2006
Although Maine is a beautiful state, the cost of living, especially property taxes, is very high.

| Living the community life - 5/27/2006
The further north you go in Maine - the further back you step in time. Many of Maine's little villages are still thriving even with the loss of multiple manufacturing jobs. "Real" Maine people know how to "make do" with little complaint. Most are willing to lend their experience to the innocent newcomers from "away". Maine is a feeling of coming home. I have never felt that I have missed out on anything else that is going on in the world. Most of the villages have their own community theaters, art galleries, church suppers, etc. There is always the internet and an international airport centrally located. The scenery is spectacular and privacy is always respected. It is an amazing place to live.

| Newer house in Boothbay Harbor with Waterviews - 3/22/2006
This lovely neat as a pin home has 2/brm & 1/ba with a bright sunny daylight basement that would take nothing to expand for extra living quarters or would make a nice inlaw apartment. Lake views and a wonderful picturesque community. Perfect for starter or retirement.

| High Costs in Maine - 3/10/2006
Maine is a beautiful place to live. Unfortunately, over the years the State government has made it a much more expensive place to live. Aside from high housing costs, we Mainers consistantly rank in the "top ten" when it comes to taxation: high property taxes, high income taxes and a 5% sales tax. The State government is driving many of its retirees away.

| Maine is special - 2/22/2006
I moved to Maine because it was like Cape Cod where I grew up 40 years ago, except Maine is not overrun and overpopulated like my home place. Because it is so big, you can be out in the middle of nowhere and still be near the ocean which is not true for most coastline, and there is still a feeling of old fashioned honesty and down homeness and self sufficiency and yankeeness which makes me feel at home and rather cozy. I like the lack of pretention on the part of most Mainiacs. I also don't mind the cold because I like to ski and I like snow and I like to look at the ocean and walk on the beach whether it is cold, warm, hurricaning, sand sandblasting the hell out of you, or whatever. It's beautiful regardless.

Maine is a great place to live if you don;t mind black flies and misquitos in the summer and cold winters.
