While I don’t think there is a real danger or huge need, this is still needed. $1.5M is not that much these days. Some of you on this page yourselves or via close family members have home(s) worth $1.5M. Those of you that have a lake house and primary residence elsewhere likely have $1.5M in real estate assets.

That basically funds them 7 headcounts (avg salary of $105k) and some surveillance equipment. It’s not some crazy amount like it once was.

Unfortunately, New Hampshire is not as progressive as it sounds like you're looking for. Only reason we aren't Florida yet is because our Governor knew he had to talk out of both sides of his mouth to keep his seat. Now that he's running for president, who knows? Literally any other North East state except maybe Maine would be a safer long-term move.

Very expensive and hard to find housing here. Republican governor. Its not a pro life state but not pro choice, theres probably some planned parenthoods in NH for those matters. Weed is illegal. Property taxes are high, makes up for lack of income and sales tax. Low diversity and overall less to do than FL. But I enjoy it since I grew up here.

New Hampshire is pretty progressive and the schools here are pretty decent especially on the coast. It’s beautiful here almost year around. I honestly hate the snow too and I hate winter here but the rest of the time makes it worth it. I moved away and then came back because I missed it so much. Depending where you live it’s pretty pricy to live here we may not have sales tax but property taxes are very high here. It also surprisingly has some really amazing food. Definitely do some research and make sure it’s for you and research towns and schools. I grew up in Dover and think it’s amazing and it is one of the fastest growing places around. It is however becoming increasingly more expensive to live though. Whatever your choice I hope you find a great place to live. :)

I moved away from Exeter almost 2 years ago. That whole strip along the river is the one thing I really miss. I was about a half mile walk away and would take evening jogs down along the river. Such a nice area I really miss it
