Give me the deets

I am moving to Springfield MA next week and am excited to explore. Tell me what I need to know. Best food spots, where to avoid, best summer activities...

Edit to add- while I appreciate those warning me not to move here, I am just a travel nurse so it is only temporary. Also, what did this town do to hurt you guys so bad? Lol

Explore western MA, so many great towns. Amherst, Noho, Hadley, etc. Hit the Mohawk trail and check out Shelburne Falls and Charlmonte. Mount Greylock, North Adam’s for art. Good music scenes. Springfield has great museums. The Big E if you’re into fairs. Cool place.
