    I’m from Texas and been in NH two years now. It is a walk in the park. Summers here are mild compared to Texas dry heat, Fall is my favorite season and I prefer cold over heat so the winters don’t bother me. Very beautiful state and yes I’m already complaining about the Mass drivers lol. Love New England and all the history, scenery and the way they talk here is hilarious!

    The Old Man was hardly "all we had". As noted, we have no income tax. We have no sales tax. We have no seat belt law {for adults}. We have no helmet law. We have no mandatory motor vehicle insurance. We have the oldest {100 years} motorcycle rally in the world. We have the White Mountains. We have Lake Winnipesaukee. We have the First in the Nation Primary. And yes, we have Portsmouth. And you're way off about the percentage of Ma$$holes here too. When you get away from the Seacoast and the Lakes region, where the affluent folks from below us have moved to in droves, most everybody is a native or at least a large percentage are. And for those who don't know, we don't even get winter now until January, so you're looking at MAYBE 12 weeks tops. Lastly, as a former Naples {Fl.} resident, I can tell you that a blizzard will never put your house three blocks away like a hurricane will. There's New Hampshire and then there's everywhere else!

We're perfectly situated to access EVERYTHING this gorgeous state has to offer. We're about an hour from Mt. Washington and North Conway for mountains, hikes, outlet factory shopping (and a stones throw from Fryeburg Fair, lol) in the North and the Seacoast with beautiful beaches, shopping and dining options in the southern part of the state while AT THE SAME TIME enjoying gorgeous scenery, abundance of Lakes, farm to table cooking, farmers markets and fresh air! Its really hard to go wrong in NH or ME!! Good video!! :D

    One of the reasons we hate massholes is they come up to the mountains and buy up all the houses to turn into air b&b's. They massed up the housing market. The locals are running out of places to live and if you're lucky enough to find a long term rental it's beyond expensive. I've been a general contractor my whole life. Over the past 10 years, 100% of my contracts have been massholes renovating single family homes they bought for short term rentals OR maintenance on 2nd, 3rd, 4th homes that are vacant 99% of the time. They have always been coming here but it has only been a problem for the past 10 years or so. They used to either buy a condo OR buy land and build a mansion so it was great for the local economy. Now, there are no condos for sale and all the land has been built on so they buy the "local houses". We have been priced out of the market. If you want to vacation here, go hiking, ski etc....PLEASE DO! We rely on it! Just get a hotel room or something. If you squeeze all the locals out who's going to run the town while you're here? Be respectful please

    Yeah, I'm one of those from Massachusetts that has moved to New Hampshire. Now living in Concord. I love it up here for the beauty and nostalgia. While the seacoast is fine there is plenty to do in the interior too. I often drive up to the White Mountains for the day. Walk the Flume Gorge or drive down the Kanc. Take the Cog up Mount Washington or see the Polar Caves or Lost River gorge. I've visited Littleton then driven down the beautiful 302 and route 10 corridor. Some days I'll visit Meredith and do Harts Turkey Farm then Fun Spot and Kellerhaus (best ice cream I've yet to find in New England. Good candy too.) I've taken the Winnipesaukee cruise to Wolfeboro and seen Castle In the Clouds. Some days I drive down to Peterborough and Keene. I've made a hobby out of searching for and walking on covered bridges.
    There is lots to do away from the Coast.

    Moved to Belmont, NH (Lakes Region) January 2001. Being from Ocean County NJ I went from flat with ocean coast to hills, mountains and lakes. Oh and a lot of snow! Was an adjustment. The company I worked for took me all over, NH, ME, VT and MA. At the time I did not appreciate the beauty of the area. Feel today it would be somewhere I'd live again. Spent only 5 years living in NH however has left me with good feelings about the area. Only left as I was offered a job in Scotland. Spent 10 years there. I would say NH is like Scotland in beauty just minus the trees and history.

They tend to mind their own business yet will help you. They can be abrupt too . New Hampshire people don’t like to drive far. It’s a big deal to go anywhere , like it’s an ordeal . They don’t like Boston which makes me crazy . The towns are picturesque with shops and cafes. New Hampshire pies are the best in the US. Their cars are always dirty because of weather , it rains a lot. It is still cold in the month of May. They don’t make good calamari in New England , not close to the west. If I tell people I live out west and say my roots are in New England, then I’m one of them . New Hampshire people are book smart. New Hampshire people will probably talk about the old man in the mountain till the end of time . God Bless New Hampshire.

    I grew up in Portsmouth in the 60s through early 80’s. One of my favorite stories that summarizes the attitude of NH vs MA involves the state liquor store at the Portsmouth traffic circle.
    The retail cost of liquor at the NH state liquor store was less than what it was wholesale in Taxachusetts so MA bar owners would drive up to Portsmouth and fill their trunks.
    The MA state police started to send undercover officers to write down license plates and phone that information to cops who would intercept them once they crossed into MA.
    Well, the NH governor got wind of this and had the MA cops arrested. My understanding is that it was not a “polite” arrest.
    After that, cooperation between the state was nonexistent. Got a ticket in MA? No problem, just don’t get caught driving there.

    I moved here from TN and enjoy the change so far. I would not recommend moving here unless you have a good-paying job, it is a very expensive place to live in comparison to other states, especially southern states. The whole tax-free BS is a lie, the state makes up for it in property taxes, registration fees, tolls, etc. My property taxes went from 1200 a year in TN to 7,000 in the central NH area. Registration fees went from 28 bucks a year for my truck, to about 400 a year for a 5-year-old truck as an example! Overall, I have liked the change and the culture, food, and good laws in the state make up for it. Especially the beauty of the state. All in all, I think NH is a great place to live, but you need to make an informed decision before moving and prepare to pay a lot more for things here. Also, it's still heaven on earth compared to the dump known as Massachusetts.

    @switchtr3 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Lol I moved to NH 10 years ago ffrom southern New England and I love it up here. However, the seacoast is the one part of the state I personally think is NOT worth moving to. Expensive, full of tourists from MA 24/7, crowded, and kind of ritzy/yuppie. Rural parts of the lakes region and or the mountains are much more laid back and have a cheaper cost of living, quieter and more of the "good life". Same as Maine, beautiful state, but the southwestern seacoast portion is the one part I'd never live, I'd rather be in the belgrade lakes region or even paper country. There's a reason everyone from the rest of ME/NH call that seacoast region you're referring to "northern Mass". If I want to visit the seacoast it's less than an hour drive which is great, there certainly is a charm to that part of the state and it's great to visit, but I would never want to be immersed in it permanently. There are two totally different lifestyles in these states, seacoast and the rest of the state. Sorry you think the good parts of the state aren't worth living in, Lol you can keep it, I'll just drop by once in a while

      Nah. For something to stand out it must be compared to what is around it. If a state is average then it is average. Taxes reflect what people want from their government and are willing to pay for (or should be paying.) The people of Massachusetts merely want more from their government than the people of lower tax states do.

    I'm curious about northern New Hampshire for retirement in the next 10 years. I know it gets cold up there, but I'm not bothered by the cold, I'm much more bothered by the heat. I can deal with 82 and humid, but not 95 and humid. I've been curious about the Berlin area. I'm currently outside of the D.C. area in a somewhat rural VA area and not too keen on staying here in retirement as things are starting to get too close to my home. I'm planning on leaving VA, I just don't know with 100% certainty where yet.

    I lived in NH for 15 years. In Salem, on the border of MA. Now I live in Arizona. Why? Live Free or Die is a joke, NH is a police state, drive 1 mph over the speed limit and a local/yoko cop literally roars out from behind a tree. Road blocks for DWI everywhere but I belive they had to stop that. Always asking "where are you going, where have you been"...this is Live Free Or Die? No sales tax, but prices are higher for many goods. I used to go to Mass to buy certain items they would be cheaper with the sales tax. And there were few if any good paying jobs. Most of my opportunities as a software consultant were in Mass, so I had to pay Mass income tax...and that was still a better deal than working in NH at a much lower pay rate. The big killer is property taxes, holy moly. The taxes on my old house are currently just under $9,000.00. In Arizona my house, about the same size but not as much land, are $1300. I've left out the bitter cold most of the year, black flies (absolute killer), mosquitos (at least the scorpions are not flying around in massive quantities heh), blasts of snow and lots of snow shoveling, rain all the time otherwise, humid summers, twisty turning two lane roads, tailgaiters, ground pollution (NH was a burial ground for waste from Mass towns Lowell, Lawrence, Haverhill mills), I could go on but thatz enough for now I think heh

    "Tax Free" means no sales or income tax, you pay for it in other ways. Property taxes are astronomic as are electricity rates. NH is only "tax free" if you don't live there. And while Mass drivers are bad, try Rome sometime, Boston is downright genteel by comparison.

    Grew up in MA, lived 7 years in ME, lived in US south and overseas. Maine was my favorite--best of all worlds! Now 23 years in NH and have regretted it almost from year one but not financially able to relocate. Sure there is beautiful scenery, but many states have that. The best thing about NH is the the people who come from somewhere else or first generation kids. I believe the majority of people are kind and caring, but town meetings, etc. help ensure self-interested bullies rule. For too many folks in NH, live "free" or die means means "free" of responsibility for anyone but yourself--absolutely the most selfish minded culture of all the NE states. LOL, the only point of your video I disagree with is about MA drivers. Sure, they are urban drivers, but try metro Atlanta and you'll soon be missing Storrow Drive. And, a local Chevy truck on a NH country lane is the most dangerous vehicle on the road. Sadly, it will never feel like home.

He said to me about a year before he died, that he regretted moving there because they were the unfriendliest people he'd ever met. He grew up and lived most of his life in or within an hour of NYC.
    Also the New Hampshire state government is one of the most dysfunctional in the US. The size of the legislature is larger than California
    Another thing is that the coast is a very expensive to live.
    Lastly, when he died I had to deal with his estate. There was an issue with probate. I called the judge and at one point he said to me; what do you expect? Do you want me to have an office covered in law books? Then I called up his state representative and he said; I've lived here my entire life and I don't understand much of what goes on here.
