Reply to comment by cdcyclist in Looking into moving to Mass. Would love to hear about the good, the bad, the ugly of living in your wonderful state! by InspectorFun1699

Just moved out of Sturbridge and can say with confidence it isn’t hip nor cool, pike was convenient and there are a lot of restaurants, seemed like a nice place for the 50+ crowd

Yes, you're probably right. Hip is a relative term, I admit to being nearly 50. Not many younger folks find antiques interesting and such. It's not like a thriving downtown bar scene or something but it's way "hipper" than the boonies of NC or more locally a town like Ware or Monson.

Very true. Thought if I were out that way, I'd venture a couple towns over to Wilbraham, which has a bit less touristy vibe. Monson is nice to drive through from a nature standpoint, and Peaked Mtn is a nice hike.
