Union is a tiny, scenic river village in the town of Wakefield (pop. ~196) with a relaxed New England small‑town vibe that’s easy to settle into for multi‑week contracts and low‑stress downtime for walking, reading, and local exploration.
You’ll still be well‑placed for amenities and weekend options — Rochester is only about 15 miles south for shopping and services, and Portsmouth (~40–45 miles) offers restaurants, coastal escapes and bigger‑city conveniences when you want more to do.
