Shouldn't Hamilton-Wenham be here? I always thought it was part of the North Shore. Lizzy 15:49, 29 April 2006 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lizziely ( talk • contribs)
Considered wealthier and more prominent by whom? I would like to see a source for this, otherwise I would like to remove it. Caligi 04:22, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
If the North Shore generally doesn't include Gloucester, why should we know about it? On the other hand, if it should, why shouldn't it be on the map? Morypcaina 23:44, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
Is this just a nice way of saying "It's suburban, but since it's in Massachusetts, it makes most Southwestern US cities look like a joke?" If so, I approve. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.113.123.1 ( talk) 23:25, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
"As far west as Boxford" is labeled on the main page. Boxford isn't considered west by any means. Look it up on a map. It's just above Topsfield, and it's more north than west. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 198.28.129.126 ( talk) 15:09, 3 March 2007 (UTC).
The section on the "culture" of the North Shore focuses on its status as a wealthy area, with exclusive communities, country clubs, prep schools, and so on. But the cities which form the core of the North Shore—Beverly, Salem, Peabody, Lynn—have a long history as working-class industrial communities; they were the center of the American shoe industry for decades. Lynn is still a predominantly working-class community, with a lot of immigrants. The North Shore I know is completely unrecognizable from the "culture" description in the article.

I have owned a home in Manchester my entire life. I consider Myopia Hunt to be the most prominent club in the nation, as is Essex. I should have clarified- social institutions. Gloucester and Salem are also not typical North Shore. Manchester, Marblehead, Swampscott, Hamilton, Wenham, Ipswich, Newburyport are all cities that Slim Aarons compared to Newport and Greenwich. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wfu2012 ( talk • contribs) 03:40, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
Neither should be classified as such. If anything, they both should not be considered, and Melrose, Malden, Chelsea, and Everett should. Also Winthrop. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.115.179.233 ( talk) 23:40, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
The lede needs a lot of trimming. The list of who wrote or filmed or set which work in which town belongs in a subsection or two. — ℜob C. alias ALAROB 19:29, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
