Surprised no one has mentioned the Lion's Den restaurant, Awesome food.

The south end/Water St area has a lot of run down older apartments. You would probably never have a problem living in that area.

I lived in the north end Ticonic street area for 9 years. Never once had an issue other than my car was burgled once (forgot to lock my doors, damn kids).

And if you're looking for marijuana, Waterville is your town! Couple of recreational stores and you can't spit without hitting one of the 56 bazillion medical places.

Doesn't the proposal for PTP state CMP employees can continue to work at the same pay if they choose? Also if PTP does contract out some work to private companies would it be safe to assume they would be local contractors? Can't we give preferential consideration to Maine owned businesses for contracts?

Get an ice scrapper and a snow shovel you can keep in the car. Drive SLOW on ice and snow. If you start to slide don't hit the brakes if you can help it or use the brakes very lightly if you have to. Always point the tires in the direction you want to go (people tend to over correct when they lose traction). In general Mainers are friendly, kind and helpful. Welcome to Maine and I truly hope you enjoy it here!
