I tried to move back to central Maine a couple years ago, and there were just so few jobs for me (mechanical engineer) that I had to drive down to Portland for anything. And even then there wasn't much. Left again.

Fuck.

A lot of the trouble was the closure of the base up North. Ruined the economy instantly.

Wish you the best!

If you mean Loring that closed back in the 90s. We had a pretty strong economy all the way through to the mid to late aughts.
