I have resided in New Salem for nearly my entire life, so let us just call it an even 33 out of 35 years! My family has also lived here for many years. I was raised in the same home my mom grew up in. This town just gained many "brownie points" for FINALLY installing fiber-optic internet! That was the one thing I would have improved about living here. I love country living in general. I think New Salem is a wonderful place to raise a family. The crowning jewel of our historical town center is the 1794 Meetinghouse. It is time we re-open and get back to bringing art and music to our community!
Salem is a semi-quaint place to live. There are fantastic restaurants, local artist, museums, live music, and much much more. Everything is relatively within walking distance. Lovely place to visit or live.
good tourist town has great restaurants. lovely family friendly neighborhoods. beautiful waterfronts and more
