Exactly. They aren’t fake about friendship. People here are reserved and respect other people’s privacy so they aren’t in your face all the time. Does not mean they are unfriendly. Jay

I find people here cold and unwelcoming - whenever I travel to other parts of the country I'm always startled when random people in stores, etc are friendly and cordial...I"m like, OH YEAH that's how you treat people!! I moved here when I had my first baby and it was a lonely place. If you are outgoing and/or don't care about socializing maybe you'd be fine. The schools are indeed amazing and there are a lot of recreational options...not to mention some proximity to Boston/NYC. Good luck.
Don't ever go to Norway then. Its considered rude to acknowledge or greet passerbys. Swift eye contact is permissable.
You're in cliquey land here.
