Massachusetts towns

Massachusetts is a state with some of the more unique town names. Some of the town names are so unique that not everyone knows how to pronounce them. There are a lot of them that begin with the four directions: North, East, West, and South. They are even 19 towns throughout the Bay State that end in 'ham'. But throughout all the unique town names in Massachusetts, there are even some that just don't sound like they are towns in the Bay State whatsoever!

It finally feels like Spring weather in Massachusetts. And honestly, it almost feels like Summer-like weather can't be too far behind. At least for now, anyway. Today (Thursday, April 13th) was easily the warmest day so far in 2023. Temperatures climbed to mid-80s in parts of the Bay State. While there were certainly some warmer spots than others, what are the warmest cities and towns in Massachusetts traditionally?

It's always nice to get recognition from reputable sources. If you live in the Berkshires, you're already well aware that we have some pretty pretty unique small towns throughout the region. However, when you have a spot that is listed as a top 'Must-Visit Small Town' by a popular travel source, that's even better.

The New England states are some of the most densely populated throughout the country. You might expect any town throughout its states to have a relatively decent population. In fact, throughout the New England states, there are 236.9 people per square mile on average, which is much higher than the national average of 79.56 people per square mile. However, despite the fact that Massachusetts has the highest population of all the New England states, one of its towns has a population that is even less than the national average of people per square mile.
