People aren’t moving here to change the state. They aren’t moving here to make NH “woke”. They aren’t moving here because they want to take yer jobs or any other argument.

People are moving here from MA because housing is cheaper.

Lots of people (like me) got remote jobs and moved to NH because we could afford the home our family needed in NH, we didn’t have to pay income tax as remote workers or owned a small business (also me), and it’s also beautiful country and a lot of us from MA (also me) spent many summers in NH and loved it.

We just switched to Fidium and we love it. I work from home as well and they hitched us up while I was still working. Only had to get offline for one minute and I was back in business. Our speeds are much faster now and we’re not sharing bandwidth with the rest of our neighbors who are working from home. The IT guy at work told me that if Fidium is not in your area call them and tell them you’re interested. When enough people in an area request it, they’ll bring it to your area.

You just have to get the right customer service rep. I just didn't want mine going up to $87 from $65 after 2 years. Ended up with 200 mb for $45 for the next 2 years. Twitter support. But it isn't chat, so it takes them a long time to reply. Be prepared for what could be a 5 minute conversation to take 3 hours.

You are not wrong. Don’t discount the sway that local property management companies have on local government.

Take Dover for example, last I looked it was something like 50% renters and most of those rentals belong to a handful of shitty property management companies. And they sure as shit don’t want anyone else building but them.

I think it's funny in this day and age that it even makes news or is part of a forum. How times have changed in our sprawled urbanized landscape where nobody walks to their job School or church and is So weather dependent. I'm 70 and have seen how this has changed over the decades. But everybody now lives somewhere else, shops at the malls drives drives drives so a flake makes a concern for everybody. I did road service, winter service, snow plowing for 40 years so I've seen all the conditions and all of the absurd driving..

For those curious about the NWS forecasts: it is eye-opening how different the latest NWS Gray NDFD snowfall forecast grids look compared to their afternoon package. Compare their forecast to mine, you'll notice it looks similar but 12 hours behind mine.

Yikes! Looks likely that a whole population originated from there, I can’t think of another explanation. It’s shocking such an invasive species wouldn’t be allowed to be hunted. This would have been late 80’s/ early 90’s she saw it. Ps I like your username, I too hate those little buggers
