Ever consider a contract job in Brunswick/Portland, ME or just want to learn more about the area? You've stopped in the right place. Nestled along the forested coast of Maine (just thirty minutes north of Portland) lies a relaxed seaside town. With over twenty thousand citizens, Brunswick gives you the best of both worlds, with a wide variety of entertainment and dining options coupled to a more relaxed, small town atmosphere.
As far as out of pocket expenses go, Brunswick sits comfortably on the average, with apartments costing between $900 and $1,300 a month. While this may seem high compared to somewhere such as Waco, TX (which you can read more about here), the location is at much more of a premium. Compared to other cities (such as Portland), you're saving as much as 30%, while being in the same premium coastal location.
Whether you're into asian fusion, italian, or good old fashioned pub food, Brunswick has it all. Great Impasta has been around for decades, offering a huge variety of italian dishes, and Byrnes Irish Pub is a great choice if you're looking to catch up on the latest sports while enjoying a variety of classic pub-style meals.
There are countless restaurants in Brunswick, with almost every style of food available at reasonable prices, but with any coastal town, their seafood is where they really stand out. Gurnet Trading Co. has a great variety of locally sourced, fresh seafood, and there are dozens of other options along the coast, whether you're looking for a gourmet, sit-down dinner or a fresh fish sandwich on the quick.
If you're looking to book a hotel, the Relax Inn has a great central location, affordable rates, and a variety of amenities including full kitchenettes in most rooms.
For those of you travelling by RV, Thomas Point Beach has a great range of services, in addition to monthly rates. If you're looking for an extended stay, we recommend contacting parks such as the KOA of Freeport to discuss a seasonal or long-term reservation, as many offer significant discounts.
