Hmm. I don't think "Downeast" stops at the Canadian border. New Brunswick and Nova Scotia residents also refer to themselves as being "Downeast."

So do people who like in Aroostook county, and they aren't even close to the coast. The term has become muddied over the decades.

Inferior?

I seriously doubt that the other Down Easts are inferior just because they aren't as well known, so "other, inferior Down Easts" becomes "other Down Easts." Svalbard in winter 15:42, 24 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Split

Because it is written where the Maine "Down East" is the dominant one. Even if this is true, the other "Down Easts" shouldn't be in a section. They should be disambiguated with their own articles and or merged into existing articles covering the same area. --Triadian (talk) 05:35, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

other "villages"

There are a several villages that were left out, including: Franklin, Sullivan, Lamoine and Hancock (not Hancock county, but the town within the county.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.125.242.236 (talk) 20:58, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
