NH is the best state to live in.
Low crime, right next to a metropolitan area (Boston), clean air, mostly suburban, many cities within are rated "Best Cities to Live In", no tax, etc.

Without a doubt. I've lived here my whole life, and I plan on keeping it that way.
I thought there was no Sales Tax in NH. I also heard that Property Tax there was astronomical.Originally posted by: jiggahertz

I made it from Nashua to Comm Ave in about 45 mins w/o traffic. Rush hour you're looking at 2+ hours.

What about avoiding traffic? I'm in Jersey now, and hate itWhat about say... taking the train from Boston to Portland, Maine. Could I get anywhere decent from there without a car?

I have always taken a car. When I went to Hampton beach, trafffic was not horrible, but that was near rthe end of the summer. Traffic is worse going to Cape Cod.
As for train, sounds like a good idea. Public transportation, surprisingly, does take you to lots of places around here. It's if you want to deal with the cancer that is called the mbta.

My goal is to move to Boston, and if all goes as planned, eventually get rid of the car entirely, or just keep it somewhere and not drive it oftenI can get anywhere in Boston with public transportation, and weekend trips to New York or Maine are a train/plane away.
LOL, as if the roadways and the drivers in Boston weren't bad enough:laugh: You take your life in your hands just crossing the street in Greater Boston. Unfortunately the worse drivers all drive the Buses for the MBTAOriginally posted by: Gibson486

Boston's better than New York though, ain't it?
