“Salisbury combines the quaintness of Norman Rockwell New England, the cachet of the Upper East Side and the enthusiasm for the outdoors of Vermont and Colorado…”

…“Salisbury is very comfortable in its own skin,” said Anne Young, a Californian who moved to town in 2014 and bought a home with her husband a year later. “The people here chose to be here.” Even the celebrities, she said, are approachable: “They let their guard down here.”

Part-time residents proudly say, “This is not the Hamptons,” adding that the social scene is very low-key and that natives mingle easily with newcomers and summer visitors.

“It’s not a pressure cooker,” Mr. Goodall said.”
