No but the guy in jail has nothing else

Because he’s in jail for participating in an attempted insurrection

Hope this info is helpful.

If you want nightlife, there’s not much in this area (Waterville, Winslow, Oakland, Fairfield, Benton - all close neighboring towns). You’d likely have to travel the 20-30 minutes to Augusta / Hallowell, or back up to Bangor. Things we have that come to mind are Flagship Cinemas, some walking trails, community pool and a playground.

I’d recommend you contact the Mid Maine Chamber of Commerce for a list of businesses so you can get the full picture. Waterville is home to MaineGeneral Thayer campus and Northern Light’s Inland Hospital.

The south end of Waterville has a less than stellar reputation for housing; however, more areas are joining in that too, sadly. Be sure to ask that question when home searching.

This area has pot shops up the wazoo.

As someone who has lived in this area all my life, I continue to struggle with eateries I enjoy AND can afford, but I don’t know how it compares to Bangor. We often go with Chinese, burgers, pizza and sandwiches, though we do have a few franchises, and some fine dining options out of my budget. Again, the trip to the Augusta area would be an option.

A great thing about this area is that you can generally get from home to a store in 5-10 minutes. We have a Walmart, Home Depot, Staples, JC Penney, Hobby Lobby, Hannaford, Shaws, TJ Maxx, Old Navy, Marden’s, etc, and some smaller locally owned stores.

What we have to offer really depends on what your expectations are. I’m happy here and have no plans to relocate. Best of luck to you!

It's the new one in River City

I heard this coming Saturday.

Starting when? Ours was normal deli service as of Sunday afternoon.

Asking the important questions

There's dozens of sites that are capable of skirting paywalls.

My mom had a Trax as a loaner and you get what you pay for with that car. Very flimsy materials, uncomfortable driving position, and just overall cheap feeling.

I drive a Chevy hatchback with only front wheel drive and so far have only gotten stuck once and that was in my own driveway. I'd say anything with AWD is going to be fine enough in snow, especially with the right tires.

It's four wheel drive, not four wheel turn, or four wheel stop. It will help you get going but honestly probably hurt you more as all wheel drive cars are heavier.

Light, fwd cars with snow tires are better for the vast majority of people. Of course there's use cases for all wheel drive and four wheel drive, but most people don't need it. Marketing has worked great.

Won't anyone think of the insurance and pharma executives? /s

I’d be scared what Waterville would be if Colby left in the 30’s when they relocated.

The Port Clyde lighthouse in the midcoast is a lovely spot.

Edit: ALSO, CONGRATULATIONS! I just got married in October. It's dope.

Riiiigggghhhht

Sunrise is definitely better than Bagel Central. And their homemade cream cheeses are immaculate. I’ve lived in both Bangor and Waterville. I was born in wtvl. They both have their charm. Live in Vermont now (after 33 years in Maine) and save for not having a coast, I love most parts of it better than Maine.

Sweet dirt cannabis is nice and I love old soul! Have fun.

Sunrise is better, lived in both towns and have been all about both.

April is still mud season, so keep that in mind if you will be outdoors!

I proposed on top of Mount Battie in Camden. Don't worry, you can drive to the top.

I’m looking forward to hearing what you think

York lighthouse is a mortal make out spot.

I am still new to Maine but that pole at Auburn Walmart seems magical and well known. I would definitely consider it.

Hahaha, alright, I’m heading down that way to tour an apartment tomorrow, and you’ve convinced me to stop in and give them a shot. I’ll give their bagels and lox a try and see how it stacks up :)
