How is living in Marlborough? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I’ve been researching Marlborough as a place to live as there’s a potential job opportunity I’m considering there.

I am Canadian, female, single, in early 30’s. How is it to live there for someone who doesn’t have a family? How welcoming is it to newcomers? Is it easy to meet people? I don’t necessarily mean dating but just making friends and building community. I like a relatively peaceful, quiet life but also like to go out occasionally for a drink, dinner, live music or art event. I don’t care for nightclubs but it’s nice when a place feels lively and has things going on, and if you want to go out for a drink with friends there is an atmosphere for that.

I am an artist and designer so I like that Marlborough has a lot of independent businesses and shops with some notable art & design presence (galleries and studios). Plus the lit fest, jazz fest, market, independent cinema. And forest and nature trails. Pedestrian-friendly is important to me.

Anyway, curious to hear from those who are familiar with it!
