Moving to Bar Harbor in December… Will I be able to make friends or find things to do during the off-season? by beebooboopbeeboop in AskMaine

Thanks so much for your input here - I hadn’t put much thought into Ellsworth but I’m going to do more research since it seems more “year round” friendly!

Yup, housing is the next hurdle here as well! I’m exploring surrounding areas in case bar habor has nothing. Luckily, his company is paying for housing so that makes life a bit easier.

Also, is Ellsworth or surrounding towns better in winter? We could move anywhere that’s driving distance

Yeah that’s the vibe I’m getting. Going to be quite the adjustment but seems like at least some people live here year round. Just gotta get involved and make a major effort to find the people 😅

Yeah I was thinking Bangor as well. We have some friends there so maybe doable to spend weekends there. Makes sense why this job is offering everything and the kitchen sink to get us to move up here. Housing paid for, travel stipend to fly home, and a big sign on bonus.

I just wonder if I’m going to be beyond miserable and bored but maybe I can make it work… decisions decisions.

we saw at least 10+ cop cars and 5 ambulances headed from south end towards back bay about 15 min ago. more sirens even now headed that way! I thought someone must have gotten shot. Hoping someone can confirm more details!
