Loving Holyoke For the Restaurants! 5 rating By Anonymous ( Apr 26, 2018) I’ve grown up in Holyoke all my life so I may be a bit biased but I actually really love living in this town and honestly can’t imagine living anywhere else. It’s the type of small town where everyone knows everyone. The schools struggled for a bit but they’re definitely ...Read More improving, or so I’ve heard.

One of the things that I really adore is the different cultures in the town. You can head to an area of the town and find a fantastic Puerto Rican culture - and the food to go with it! The same holds true with the Irish community too. It makes it really easy to find something delicious to eat, and, for me, those are the best areas in Holyoke.

Living in Holyoke does have its downsides. Like most places in the area, there is crime, but it seems like things have gotten a lot better in the last few years, at least from what I’ve seen. Read Less
