Housing market sucks ass but we could certainly use more early childhood educators

Culturally you'll get along fine. Maine has a small-town culture where people get by how they can, help each other out, and mostly leave people alone to live their lives. It's not too different from what I've seen in the rural Midwest, just with trees and hills instead of corn.

Edit: we also have our share of backwards-ass bigots but for the most part they aren't as loud or aggressive as in Kansas and they don't have any power in the legislature (at least for now)
