Why is New Hampshire So Weird???

Few states are as unique as New Hampshire. It's a New England state that had a hand in the American Revolution, but it's different than the other surrounding states, like Massachusetts. In fact, it shares some characteristics of southern states. Despite being one of the smallest states in the country, it has an outsized influence on national politics, for one thing. About the only thing that is similar to other northeastern states is that New Hampshire has a population of educated residents. It's a weird state, ya'll. Join me while I uncover the various reasons why it's such a unique place to live.

Is New Hampshire the weirdest state in the U.S.? What do you think?

NH is also a place where most people don't stick their noses into each other's affairs When Justice Souter retired to his family's land after serving on the Supreme Court, we were inundated by reporters who asked us what he was up to and he was doing. Everyone told the reporters that was his business and not ours.

Moved from Old England to New England.
I couldn't be happier. What a place to live, it has everything a person could want.

I live in Northern NH it's beautiful and a great place to be. But the big problem is rich people from Boston buying all the property and only renting on air bnb or other short term rentals. Making housing a big problem if you live here.

I’ve never heard of NH being the Texas of New England. But I get it.

I lived in New Hampshire all my life.

New Hampshire: low cost liquor and plenty of guns!

I actually visited New Hampshire in May it's a beautiful state and the people there were super friendly

I used to live in New Hampshire, I wish I never moved. It's amazing there.

I lived and worked there for 4 years. Both our daughters were born there. I left only to pursue returning to my home farm. I loved New Hampshire especially the people around us!

Insurmountable Problem #1 with New Hampshire: IT'S TOO DAMN COLD IN THE WINTER!

It is very weird and those are some good reasons. Its also the freest state and, despite FBI stats I think the safest state due to most of the crime being in tourist locations during tourism seasons. The people have an ornery streak that keeps the law at bay while being very respectful of each other as residents. I, myself am a transplant and those are many but not all of my reasons for being here. We love transplants but please, remember why you left your old state and dont bring that stuff here.

"Live free or die." Yeah, really weird.

NH is an amazing state. But no one else should move her....uh I mean there!

Moved to NH after I retired. It has everything I ever dreamed of! The alien abduction story is just frosting on the cake!😅

I have lived in New Hampshire for 35 years. They have no social services up here if you have a child that is handicap or disabled you’re screwed if your child needs extra help in school you’re screwed if you are low income, you’re screwed the neighborhood that I live inpeople in their 70s have to move out because they can’t afford the property taxes anymore. I have a half a acre and my property taxes are 8500. The minimum wage here is $7.25 an hour I could go on and on.

New Hampshire has VERY high Property taxes...

I live in NH. We love our quirky state. The people are very friendly and it's a very safe place to live.

LIVE FREE OR DIE BABY!

My husband and moved to NH in 2001 from the SF Bay Area. [Yes, we got priced out] We researched a lot as to where we should move and New Hampshire came out on top. Within eight months of arrival we purchased a lovely home on two acres of woodland. Our fantasy came to life, and it has never soured. We love it here. The people are very friendly and decent job opportunities are here. My only gripe is having to go to Mass for cannabis. NH, you are missing out on a lot of revenue.

I live in Maine about 40 minutes from the NH border - I sometimes wish I lived in NH as southern Maine is basically northern Massachusetts.

[philtorrez]

My sister lives there and I visit often. It’s a beautiful place to be in the summer.
