Low crime, great schools, plenty of things to do year-round, great sense of community, good restaurants, theater and close to many recreational activities.
There were many lakes and public swimming pools nearby for summer activities, beautiful fall foliage and apple picking in the fall, lots of sledding, ice skating, and skiing in the winter
I grew up here and loved it. Unfortunately, I don't love the poverty, the ridiculous cost of heating, some of the most expensive universities in the U.S., the opioid epidemic, and lack of mental health care. I, like many of my generation got priced out of NH. If the U.S. starts taking care of its citizens again with the help of our neighbouring politician I reckon NH will return to its former glory.
Good: Fall, hiking, Market basket, coops, CSA
