Weekend activities in Northampton?

Hello, I'm a remote worker and You can expect to pay around $1,404 for rent here. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Has anyone dealt with this? Thanks in advance! Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Property taxes are high but you get good services. The city has invested a lot in new development.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 12 years ago from Salt Lake City and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: The market is competitive but not impossible. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in The Heights. It's hit or miss for what you get.

Jobs: The market is developing right now, especially in government. If you're in healthcare you might struggle.

People: Generally challenging. It took about 9 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: average. Tons of options if you like Asian.

Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
