We're thinking of moving to Kingston, and are a little hesitant due to the lack of diversity. Both my husband and I grew up in not-so-diverse suburban towns. I'm bi-racial and he's Caucasian. We are concerned about fitting in, and would like our (someday) kids to have a good life without feeling out of place. Does anyone have any insight on this?
An aside, we're also looking to hear more about the community and those that border Kingston ... any cafes, arts, farmers markets, creative-type of things that would be a draw? |

Kingston is pretty much a homogenized (white) town. You probably won't experience any sort of overt, racism/discrimination. If you decide to move to Kingston---worse case scenario is you will just expereince periodic instances of bigotry...most of which will be very covert, and subtle.

Thanks. Would you describe the area as left-leaning?

There's a good mix both left and right...

I would take Kingston anyday over Falmouth! Living year round on Cape Cod is not a good idea. If you want a small town and can afford it, I'd choose Norwell, Hingham, Hanover, Duxbury, Scituate or Cohasset. I would NEVER live on the Cape year round unless I was over the age of 70.

That's too bad, kaioak36. It's actually really nice. I have a lot of family there and the Cape is sometimes much nicer in the off-season.
