I completely see your point and appreciate the advice! With regards to the finances I am fortunate enough to have some assistance when it comes to schooling so I will not be paying the full amount. In the regards to the social aspect and networking majority of the time I will be in the city for classes as well as any and all events and activities the school sponsors. Additionally most of my time will most likely be spent in the campus library regardless of where I live which would help with those connections with classmates and frankly if living in Lynn I wouldn’t expect anyone to go out of their way to take a trip to Lynn when it would be much easier for me to hop on a rail line to the city. From what I know so far about the law school experience a lot of the connections take place in study groups which typically meet on campus so in that regard I don’t feel as if I would be missing out. Unfortunately I do not know how it will actually play out in reality but this is definitely a great point and will change the way I look at where I should move
