My hometown is big for Maine since its over 20,000. Now in college the town (not counting the college) is quite a bit smaller than that... but it doesn't affect me because I don't go anywhere anyway. :)
Yeah, it is a very rural state. There are other rural states (like some out west...) and like all of them, I bet, not many people stay here after graduating if they want a decent job... I doubt I'll be able to... its not like there is much here. I'm just here because its where my dad got a job as professor here... I was the first person in our family born in this state as far as I know.
Oh, at least I'm not from northern Maine. Aroostock county up there is bigger than some states (like Delaware) but has like 50,000 people in it...
Anyway, 4 of the 6 New England states have under 1.3 million people... and 2 are under a million (Vt. and RI). Compared to other areas, no, not that many people... but thats not so bad.
Plus, we get lots of snow and its not very hot much. Both of which, BTW, are IMO good things. :)
