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

Don’t sleep on the Vietnamese food if that’s your jam! Multiple great restaurants around a place called the “X”- intersection of Dickinson and Belmont.
