I moved here from Mass, it's not hard to adapt. People are less into the car you drive or how big your house is. Instead of being a badge of honor, people are low key about money. Don't expect everyone to spend the weekend at the mall or Home Depot shopping, there's much less reverence for commercialism and capitalism as a lifestyle. There are also a lot less choices in shopping and the grocery stores pretty much suck. The differences in traffic laws & regulations are minor. Everyone can go to Town Meeting, you don't have to be a member like in Mass. It's super easy to get involved in town politics and the people that are involved run a wide spectrum.
