First reason, if you're from MASSACHUSETTS you should not move to NH.

Reasons to not move to NH
1: you're from Massachusetts
2: you're from New York
3: you're from California

Moved from CA to NH 8 months ago. Best decision we ever made.

As someone who has never been to NH, I fully expected to see 10 tongue-in-cheek reasons like "if you don't like awesome hiking, food, and fun then NH is NOT the place for you." Instead, this was a legit list. Thank you.

As I’m living in Louisiana but was in New Hampshire this past summer on vacation, I’d say New Hampshire was a paradise! Beautiful woods, temperatures more relaxing and the bugs were not near as bad as Louisiana. The architecture was also really neat, truly seeing a difference between Northern America, and the French influence in Louisiana. If I were to win the lottery, I’d move to New Hampshire in a heartbeat with a simple home to live out my days in peace!

As a granite stater, if you are considering moving here keep in mind that I’d you aren’t going 75+ on the highway you are going to slow

In New Hampshire there are no summers, when the temperature does finally warm up a little, then it rains almost everyday, usually all day. In the middle of October your back to snow. It's a pretty depressing place to live.

We have mosquitos and flying roaches the size of grasshoppers here in the SC. Not to mention the poisonous snakes of both the amphibian and human species ! LMAO I miss my New Englanders! Hope to move back home soon.

I like how he is a real estate agent and he tell us not to move to new Hampshire

[FoodNTravel]

I have been here in NH for about five months now. You are right about everything. I don't mind having a vacation home here due to beautiful views in the fall, but not to move.

[bmaddog]

I think that this video was actually trying to turn people away from thinking about living in this beautiful state.

[larrycurrier]

I'll give you one reason not to move here we do not need any more people here we're fine just the way we are in fact we could probably export a few that should have never come here in the first place

the bugs are not bad here try living down south, the winter may be cold but its not dark and we have only had a few snow storms this year, as for food their are tons of different restaurant's, i live in a tiny town we have authentic Greek, Ukrainian, Chinese, and a Tibetan restaurant, traffic is not bad just don't take 93 from Manchester to concord Thursday or Friday during rush hour during the summer, weather is amazing i lived down south and new Hampshire is not hot and humid at the same time, its either hot or its cooler but very humid but most of the time its high 70s low 80s and nice. taxes for property are high but you don't have sales tax. i love NH and everyone i know who has moved away has always come back.

I love NH ! Snow and sking is great here, summers and hiking in these beautiful mountains with world class hiking trails is just the best in the world!

[laininnh]

Cody's comment on the property tax is a bit misleading, we have high property tax but we have very low taxes because we don't have a high overall tax burden-look it up you'll see NH has a very low over all tax burden. It's a beautiful state and we mean it when we say Live Free or Die, most aren't big fans of big government -and that's a good thing. :-)

Bugs...HA!!! I lived in the bayous of Louisiana. You'd be walking along, see a sudden eclipse of the sun and the next thing you knew your friend bob was a shriveled husk, fluttering to the ground like a crumpled leaf. We never used bug spray for mosquito's. You'd hear the hum of a jumbo jet, pull out a 12 gauge and pray for daylight! Your "bugs" make me laugh!

We came from Arizona and lived in Derry for a year. It didn’t suck honestly. Of course we were there during the start of Covid and didn’t get to really investigate the state as we hoped. I can tell you it is expensive, but that’s just New England in general. If what this gentleman tells you doesn’t matter and you love nature, strange bugs, snow, and the slow life - go for it!

[kerrylewis]

I live on the coast of New Hampshire and thought I would stay in my home for the remainder of my life. The trouble is that so many people are moving here and changing the state to a place like Massachusetts. I like simple living and prefer my neighbors have wings or four legs. Looks like I'll be heading north with the hopes of having what I always thought New Hampshire should be without the influences of southern states. I'm just not sure if that is even a realistic thought anymore.

[lindanorris]

and you forgot to mention how cold and unfriendly the native residents are!

[lbisurfreak]

born and bred in south jersey, moved up to the lakes region last year now about to move to manchester. the state is awesome if you like to be outside. i just miss the good food and swimming in may....
