A Boston suburb of 20,000 residents, of whom about 17,000 are nouveau riche natives of Dorchester, South Boston, and West Roxbury.
Located on the South Shore, affectionately known as the Irish Riviera.
The town's nemesis is the neighboring blue collar, albeit increasingly yuppiefied town of Weymouth. Nearby Cohasset and Scituate are demographically similar, but do not have the "obnoxious reputation" of Hingham.
The good...
There are, indeed, many Hingham residents are decent, empathetic, and modest in demeanor.
The Derby Street Shoppes have finally brought upscale shopping to the South Shore. This plaza is home to the South Shore's first Whole Foods Market.
The four best things to come out of Hingham, in no particular order: Route 3, Route 3A, Route 53, and Route 228.
The bad...
For those familiar with the British sitcom Keeping Up Appearances, Hingham has the highest-percentage of Irish-American Hyacinth Buckets in the country.
Money doesn't necessarily mean class. You can take the kid out of Southie, Savin Hill, Fields Corner, but you can't take the ___ out of the kid!
Hingham, living proof that one doesn't have to live in Texas to be a wealthy, vapid-minded philistine.
Hingham has a disproportionate number of Toyota Land Cruiser and Mercury Mountaineer SUVs, almost 100% of which have never been off-road. (Note: The parking lot of Derby Street Shoppes or the South Shore Plaza does not constitute "off-road" driving)
A Boston Globe columnist from neighboring Weymouth has, rightfully, mercilessly lambasted Hingham for its single-handed roadblocks in the rebuilding of the Greenbush MBTA Commuter Rail line. This columnist, as I have, has taken pains to state that there are many Hingham residents who are just as indignant at these petulant prima donnas as other residents of the South Shore.
There is a Commuter Boat line to Boston from the Hingham Shipyard. However, most of the parking is allocated to Hingham residents, at a discounted price! So the option for Hull, Cohasset, Weymouth, and Scituate residents commuting from the Hingham Shipyard is not always feasible.
Hingham, little more than West Roxbury with some harborfront views.
And, most puzzling of all, many Hingham residents mispronounce their town as "Higgim." Hardly anybody from outside Hingham mispronounces the name of that town.

Capital township of the Irish Riviera, where anyone originally from Southie who made money or graduated from Boston College decides to call home. A bastion of smugness and contempt for the poor.
Person 1: I was in Hingham yesterday driving my Land Rover like a d-bag with a few too many Chardonnays and or Manhattans under my belt.
Person 2: (eye roll)
Pretty much the worst place ever.
Don't go to Hingham, you'll come out of there with no arms or legs.
"Hey, I'm going to Hingham tomorrow"
"Have fun on your suicide mission."

A small town that feels larger than it is, with an over-abundance of drug dealers who sell heroin, crystal meth, and crack cocaine. The poor litter the public parks and transgender sex workers literally take over the streets from 9 pm to 6 am. Not to mention, it always smells like urine and filth. I don't suggest living there or taking your children anywhere near there. It's a small town in shambles. Almost all of the members of their hockey team are gay. It's utterly disgusting.
I would rather die than be held hostage for one night in Hingham. Please don't bring that tramp over my house, she is from Hingham. If he sells his on the corner, then he is definitely a member of the Hingham High hockey team.

Giving a blowjob to a dude behind Denny's with a mouthfull of silver dollar pancakes.
Marsy enjoyed his Moons Over My-Hammy at Denny's, but was more excited about his to-go order of flapjacks and the impending Hingham Lockjaw he was about to experience.
Hingham guys are weed smoking, jocks, who like to get wet with their snobby white girlfriends. They are mainly ignorant, and vape in the hingham high bathroom. These peope make up 75% of Hingham's population.
You can find hingham guys at hockey rinks, Chipotle, and football fields.

Hingham girls are all stuck up, rich, snobs who only care about money and their hockey playing boyfriends.Dont get me wrong they are absolute babes. Hingham High is the Best school in the state so hingham kids get in to any college they want.They shop at Derby street shops, and they wear uggs, lululemons, and drive BMW's and Mercedes.They look down on the other towns around them including, Weymouth, Norwell, Cohasset, Hull, Hanover, and basically every Mass. town except Wellsley.
Hingham girls can be found at Crow point and hockey games. If your not from Hingham you really dont have a chance.
