What it’s like
The place. Weston is a very small town in Aroostook County, Maine, where nearly everyone owns the home they live in. Household incomes run a little above the county's, and a four-year degree is held by fewer adults than not. Winters are long and cold, with a great deal of snow, and summers are warm and short.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with others in shops, manufacturing, and transport and warehousing. Across Aroostook County, some of the largest workplaces are The Aroostook Medical Center, Cary Medical Center and Walmart. Unemployment across the county has risen slightly over the past year, and there are somewhat fewer jobs than there were a year earlier.
Things to do. East Grand Lake, a reservoir, is a short drive away, as are the East Branch and West Branch of the Mattawamkeag River. Spednic Lake is a longer drive, and farther still is the Island Falls Opera House, a theatre.
