Getting angry that people ask questions and other people answer them of their own free will appears to be one of his hobbies.

I'm in New Hampshire right now and if you want to take NHEC I'll happily trade you for CMP. NHEC is literally just CMP with 1/8 of the employees needed to keep the service functional.

I've lived in OOB for the last 3 years. Never used a special trash bag. Just regular old glad bags. 🤷‍♀️

Get a clamp on ammeter and test at your main electric panel to see how many amps your house is using. You can then turn off one breaker at a time to find any high draw circuits. Maybe you have an appliance or well pump that is continuously running.

So what is the term used for CMP chagrinning customers to deliver the electricity, provide customer service, equipment repairs etc ( I used deliver fee) I understand that cmp does not generate the power and does not sell power, I switch my provider every 6 months or when ever the contract agreement runs out.

That’s what happens to all beautiful places. Also Eastport is heavily promoted by the tourist board as a top destination to visit downeast.

Is it a good place to retire? I am retiring in few years. With my pension and social security I will only make about $4,800 a month. Would I be able to live in Eastport on that income?

Retirees can live anywhere they want. No concerns about finding jobs.

There is a reason it is inexpensive. What you need is for a lot of wealthy people to move into the area, buy lots of property, push all the locals out and make it the next tourist Mecca. Then everyone will want to live there.

That would be Mississippi and Louisiana cause hurricane come in every few years and houses are destroyed.
It is probably the cheapest ocean front real estate on the east coast

Also do they a hospital there? Where do people go if they get sick or injured?

Interesting to read all your responses. I’m not from Maine but did grow up on the east coast. All the towns you mentioned seem very touristy. When you do a Google search for the best towns to visit in Maine most of the ones mentioned are in the responses. I like to go to the places the locals know about and don’t want the tourists to know. I had to do some searching but was able to find a few places.

Same! I have two elementary school kids. I feel really lucky that they have such great teachers and school staff. And small class sizes, incidentally.

I would love to own waterfront property for $250,000. I would love to be able to find a house for under $500,000 that is livable. Here in WA a undeveloped waterfront lot 1/4 acre in size is $300,000.

Harpswell. Very quiet. Not touristy but close to everything. No tacky tourist shops or crowds. I came all the way from Seattle to show my wife authentic Maine .

I think it depends a lot on where you live. I live on the west coast and the average teacher salary is about $58,000. The average price of a house here and within a 40 mile radius is about $750,000. So if a house near where you teach is $400,000 and you are making $50,000 a yr as a teacher in Maine you are actually much better of than a teacher here in Washington making $8,000 more but having to pay almost twice as much for housing. We also have a 10.2% sales tax, gas is almost $5.00 a gallon of gas and my property taxes are $875 a month. A way more expensive place to live.
I am thinking of retiring in Maine ad it is so much cheaper.

Lots of Milo kids go to Foxcroft now, so at least they sort of merged somewhere
