Couple moving to Old Orchard Beach from out of state

Not sure if this has been asked before, but Just moved here 16 months ago and Median household income is $65,842, which feels about average for the area. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The city has invested a lot in new development. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 3 years ago from Charlotte and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: If you look outside the main areas you can find deals. We're paying /mo for a 3-bed in Sunset. It's pretty good for what you get.

Jobs: The market is affordable right now, especially in engineering. If you're in manufacturing you might struggle.

People: Generally solid. It took about 4 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: solid. Tons of options if you like Thai.

Hope this helps!.
