Our Take
Yarmouth is a charming coastal town with a median household income above the national average. While it's not an especially walkable or diverse community, its schools are well-regarded, and it's relatively safe. With some trade-offs regarding its remote location and limited public transportation, Yarmouth is a solid choice for families or retirees.
