A typical, rich town full of liberal cocksuckers and capitalistic whores located on the South Shore of Mass. It is dominated by white pestilence, mainly Irish Catholics who believe everything their parish says. The town pride is unlike any other, perhaps taking it a little too far. The citizens tend to believe they are superior in every way to all other towns, especially the town of Weymouth. Perhaps the more pathetic aspect of this town is its teenage population. The teens are mainly a bunch of ignorant bitches who flaunt to pop culture and its influences and probably couldn't tell you a single fact about the current state of U.S. affairs. They often make up ridiculously dumb phrases, referred to as "Hingham speak". They are the true representation of a dumbed-down, manipulated youth full of sluts, jocks, and potheads.

Most of the town has not experienced a single traumatizing event and seem to have perfect lives. It consists of gold digging blonde wives and cigar-sucking, CEO husbands who are also members at either the Boston Golf Club or Black Rock Country Club. The biggest issue in the past ten years has been whether to put up lights on the Ward Street field so kids can play lacrosse even though they'll never be as good as Duxbury. They should just stick to hockey after the Super 8 win.
Well, your basically an arrogant jerk who thinks less of others. You should move to Hingham.
Hingham by CheGuevera June 21, 2010
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."

Hingham Girls 

In Response to the person above (if you search hingham girls), I'm guessing you're from hingham, and you're probably a guy. As you said, the "hingham girls" pretend to have problems, which may offend you because you hang out with the Punk Rock girls, and you have "actual" problems. I hope your cigarette smoking, trashy, "punk girls" are doing well, and you yourself.

Hingham girls are like all others
Im punk because I say I am, oh wait, that would make me a fucking loser because I need to label myself : (. wahhh wahhhh Hingham girls wahhhh wahhh

Hingham Girls 

Hingham girls. Probably the biggest bunch of ugly, snobby Preps in the whole state of Mass. They think they're wicked tough because they run their mouth on the red line, do coke (bought with their parents money) and let their boyfriends smack them around before Monster Jam.
The popped-collared wearing, shapeless, stringy-haired, rotting crotched posers listen to rascal flatts and pretend they have problems.
They only travel in groups outside of Hingham because they are pussies and don't stand a chance against any other girls from any other towns. And heaven forbid they run into a Black person. They are stupid enough to pick fights with anyone who doesn't have as much money as them. If anything they should be more eager to get in a fight because, well hell, Daddy can always pay for a new nose job!
Now don't get me wrong, the punk rock girls of Hingham are cool. Because they hate the collar-popping puss bags just as much as everybody else. You know you're not very well liked when you get your ass kicked on the train and even the boys you're with cheer on your enemies.
BECAUSE EVERYONE HATES HINGHAM GIRLS!!!!!
Go take a walk to Black Rock, Higham High, Derby Street, or possibly a random night on the red-line and you'll see perfect examples of Hingham Girls.
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.
