But it’s not just the homes that exude warmth; it’s the people too. Avon’s tight-knit community comes alive during the holiday season. Neighbours share hot cocoa and stories, and there’s a palpable sense of togetherness that warms the coldest of winter days. My Cape Verde, Nigerian and American neighbours make Avon an enviable place to live.

Winter activities galore

Avon may be a small town, but it offers a wide array of winter activities to keep residents entertained. From ice skating at the local rink to sledging down snow-covered hills, there’s no shortage of outdoor fun. The town also hosts holiday markets and events, making it easy to get into the festive spirit.

For those seeking a more tranquil experience, the Avon Public Library is a great place to curl up with a good book. This Library was only five minutes away from where I stayed and it was fun taking short walks and back. Its inviting atmosphere and vast collection make it the perfect winter retreat.

Culinary Delights to Savor

Winter in Avon also means indulging in hearty and comforting meals. Local restaurants serve up seasonal specialities like creamy soups, roasted meats, and decadent desserts.

Whether you’re dining out or cooking at home, winter in Avon is a culinary delight. I did not have time to get a favourite meal but I loved the Indian restaurants in Boston.

The Quiet Magic of Snowfall

Perhaps the most enchanting aspect of living in Avon during December is the quiet magic that descends with each snowfall. The hushed streets, illuminated by the soft glow of streetlights, create a sense of tranquillity that is hard to find in the bustling city.
