The Meduxnekeag River winds through the heart of Houlton, curving around the downtown area and flowing past Houlton Riverfront Park. Residents are attracted to the town’s close-knit community mindset and outdoor lifestyle, as natural surroundings offer year-round recreation. “Some people recognize that sense of community that you don’t always get in other places,” says Nancy Ketch, the town’s Economic & Community Development Director who was born and raised in Houlton. “We have this welcome committee, the Gateway Ambassadors, that greets new residents. And oftentimes, those new people will then get involved. The community wants to give back, that’s the atmosphere.” Ketch also emphasizes that many residents appreciate the remote lifestyle, being able to work from home and enjoy the outdoors. “A lot of people have moved here for remote work because we have some of the best broadband in the state,”
