17 Surefire Signs That You Definitely Belong In Massachusetts

Are you thinking of moving to Massachusetts? Or are you a long-time local who has started to wonder whether the Bay State is truly for you? There are a few things that most happy Massachusetts natives have in common. Here are 17 surefire signs that you definitely belong in Massachusetts.

1. You can’t stand the thought of living somewhere that doesn’t get all four seasons.

2. And you have a slight obsession with all things fall. In fact, you don't know what you would do if the leaves were green in October.

3. You know that a Dunkin’ Donuts "regular" coffee is just as good, if not better, than the fanciest thing on a Starbuck’s menu.

4. You can dodge potholes like some sort of professional stunt driver.

5. You can maintain a near-constant stream of sarcasm.

6. You can’t decide between country living or city life, so you love being somewhere where you can have both without driving for hours and hours.

7. You have a deep appreciation for natural beauty and the amazing variety of things to do outdoors.

8. You don’t mind a huge influx of summer visitors because hey, new friends (and tourism dollars).

9. You can sustain an intense devotion to your local sports teams no matter the outcome of a season, but it helps if they win all. the. time.

10. You would seriously consider driving in blizzard conditions. You’re not afraid of a little snow.

11. Perpetual road construction doesn’t faze you. You prefer the side roads anyway.

12. You’re sort of an ice cream snob. Having homemade frozen treats on every corner is important.

14. …but also love a day in the apple orchards, woods or mountains.

15. You have pretty high standards for seafood and prefer it served from a paper plate at a clam shack.

16. You can thoroughly appreciate a backyard cookout with friends, neighbors and Hoodsie Cups.

17. No matter how far you roam, you’ll always have a place for home in your heart.
