I lived in MA for four years before moving to NH and I must say, the stereotypes are true. Most people I met in MA were rude and seemingly had a “we’re better than you attitude.” On multiple occasions I was told that I was stupider than someone simply because I didn’t go to school in MA. Now NH, on the other hand, has some of the most pleasant people I’ve ever met. People here seem very humble and friendly

> All of this is good news for Massachusetts. Svec said high incomes typically correlate with high rankings on other measures of quality of life, such as economic opportunity and health outcomes.

This is an important fact that should not be overlooked IMO

No, i follow them on ig because I want to switch to powerlifting at some point, and I like to see what the other people in the state are up to. It does not look like they’re packed. It’s a 24/7 keycard gym which is nice you can go anytime. Only downside is that the people who run it are definitely are free staters, idk if that bothers you.

If they advertise that they host weddings, it's going to be unnecessarily expensive. These places know that weddings = big dollars. The wedding business is huge lately because everyone wants something unique, special and over the top. Searles advertises Fairytale Weddings, for fuck sake. Even less expensive places tack on a ton extra for a wedding compared to a similar sized event.

Best advice I've seen would be to find someplace that doesn't normally do weddings and figure out how to get it done there. Or, find someplace that's brand new to doing weddings and looking to grow a business. Downside is, you have to live with compromises, you aren't likely to have an on-site event planner (unless you contract separately) and it'll be a lot more work to coordinate and arrange everything.
