Visit during February and stay for the month in an AirBnB to get a good idea of what the dead of winter is like and multiply that by 5-6 for the length of time that it is like that here.

My brother lives in DC and its different in every way. Sporting events are UVM and that's really it. No good food past 8pm. Cool music scene but mostly local/smaller artists while my brother can go see anyone big in DC.

Wow 5-6 months, is it debilitating weather? I’ll trade 5 months of heat & humidity for cold and snow. I think?? Can you elaborate

It's below freezing from mid November through early April. Can expect snow from late October through late April. Then comes the darkness. It's dark before 5 from November through January. And even now it doesn't get light until 7 in the morning and it's dark by 6 pm. January and February are usually the coldest and snowiest months of the years up here. Can expect a minimum of a week of sub zero temperatures where -15 f is normal.
