Will & Jim Llewellyn
Jim and Will moved to Springfield in 2006 from a small Vermont town after having lived in large cities in the West.
In researching communities in which to put down new roots, they looked for a gay-friendly, midsize city with large,
older homes at affordable prices. They considered Providence RI but ultimately purchased a 12-room Victorian in
Springfield's McKnight historic district. There, they found friendly neighbors and a sense of community. They also enjoy the city's restaurants and night spots as well as easy access to the region, Boston, and New York City.
