Here is a page I came across that may have some answers for those who consider moving to New Hampshire: NH Business Resource Center (http://www.nheconomy.com/recruitment/state-to-state-comparison.aspx - broken link)

It generates a pdf file with data about NH and a state you choose. Taxes, crime and a lot more.

Well, all I have to say is that Arizona failed this test. lol
All the bad is doubled in AZ, and all the good is 1/2.
Enough said.
And contrary to what people think, it cost as much to buy a house here. I guess people will sacrifice a lot for "no snow".
I'm moving out of AZ. Time to leave the devil behind. lol

Excellent post. I added it to my NH favorites. It was interesting to compare data. It just added more fuel to my fire for reasons to move out of Mass!!!

Ain't it nice? I can't understand why people like 10-month summer and enjoy 95+ for weeks and weeks at a time. I am sure glad not everyone is flocking up north.

The only area where TX is better is house prices. But I am willing to pay for the outdoors
