It’s dubbed the 100-square-mile home of celebrities, ship captains, and people in between -- Martha’s Vineyard is a New England island that boasts beaches, farms, and enticing destinations in one fantastic location. It’s portrayed as charming and idyllic, but it needs to be said that Martha’s Vineyard also makes for a great place for permanent residence. Here are some reasons why.


There’s enough room for creativity and artistry

The place offers all the ingredients for a creative worker to channel their energies into creating something beautiful and lasting. There are plenty of local theater productions, there’s robust local news reporting, and events to showcase one’s artistry abound.


It’s as laidback as it can be

People on the island aren’t there to impress others; tailored suits or designer dresses are hardly showed off. In their place are an unerring island vibe and a casual environment where people know each other and can get their wardrobe at the thrift shop.

It’s a whole lifestyle

Residents don’t really miss out on anything by living on Martha’s Vineyard. They have inspiring coastal cottages, beaches and dogs, and a sense of community. The shops are open, and the local restaurants and markets offer local, fresh gastronomic delights (think seafood!). There are activities to choose from, including pottery, the regular cocktails, and exploring the outdoors.


It’s small and beautiful

The island has no stoplights, and many secondary roads are one-lane only. It’s extremely walkable, and with most parking lots cramped it’s advisable to navigate the place on foot. The message here is Martha’s Vineyard remains a small-town dream.
