    "The area is so beautiful... Hancock has a fantastic new park, town beach and four premium lakes within the town boundaries. The community is very active with a great summer concert series. Annual festivities include old home days a farmers market and holiday traditions from Hayrides to community suppers. We host a spectrum of talent bringing travel and book reviews, specialized field trips (mycology, bird watching.....) The Harris Center and Boston University's Sargent Camp have extensive free community education programs year round. The schools are fantastic....in short, I don't know a better place to live and raise a family."
