Reply to comment by mp29k in Hi, I'm considering uMaine. by MickeyNico

I'm so strange to racism topics actually and bcs of that I'm afraid of saying smth wrong but I'm also white. (idk if it's only about color or also being local). What about job opportunities ?

Thank you for response btw

What kind of jobs? Long term career jobs? Pretty grim. Good jobs to work as a college student, plentiful. Regarding racism, many young people wouldn’t want to live in an area that’s 97%+ white because of the racism stigma, so I felt compelled to mention it. Generally, people in Maine are pretty friendly in my experience, it takes a little time to get them to open up at times, but once they do, they’re incredibly generous and genuine people. If you like outdoors activities, it’s really hard to beat Maine.
