Hi, I'm a Swede currently living in New Zealand. I've lived in several countries, but none with the values that you describe. It's a compelling reason to move to New Hampshire - maybe one day. Part of my family lived in the USSR. From them I learned not to take freedom for granted or to trivialize it.
You can contact the free State project, they are working to make NH more free and help all people around the world move here who will help do just that.
At 2:28 we don't have a sales tax, but beer is taxed, wine and liquor are not taxed. If you dine out - fast food to 5 star - we have a meals tax. Think convenience store food items are taxed. We have a tax on gasoline/diesel and on cigarettes. We have no income tax (except on dividends) and no inheritance tax, but our property taxes are higher. Liquor can only be purchased at state liquor stores - We have some stores on our highway rest stops.
How is it now? :) Looking for 4 seasons (mainly fall and winter), low taxes, NO VACCINE MANDATES, reasonable cost of living/rent, right to bear arms and free speech. Would LOVE some insight! :)
@@jammingalwaysI live here. It’s basically a southern state, and I can say that because I went to college in Virginia for 4 years. Its a southern state without the stereotypical “stupid” “slow” southerners, and in fact is one of the most educated states. Its has some of the most lenient laws for guns you can buy a gun at 16 with no license and open carry without one, no state tax and that’s why everyone from MA comes to buy stuff here. Not to mention it’s a top 3 richest state in the US so you’ll make wayyy more and keep way more in your pocket because of the low taxes. You can buy very cheap land with acres of land, and build a house for a quarter of the price you would be able to buy one in MA with .1 acre. I would highly recommend living here ONLY if you carry conservative values and don’t bring liberal views and try to change the great laws and views we value here! It’s horrible when people from MA move here because it’s cheaper and they can have nicer things but carry their same views which will ultimately change the state to exactly the things they left!
@@P00LI Just out of interest, when adults visit amusement parks in New Hampshire that have roller coasters (or any other rides for that matter), are the riders who are over 18 years old given a choice not to wear a safety harness ? If so, I assume there are plenty of adults who choose not to. How does that work out for them? Any deaths or injuries? If there's no choice, why not?
@@thepsychologist8159 you don’t need a seatbelt for “motor vehicles.” Roller coasters aren’t motor powered. If your upside down or that high up I bet anybody over the age of 18 wouldn’t be stupid enough to not wear one, if they are they should’ve died a while ago. Also your on their property you follow their rules, under their insurance guidelines to wear one or your probably kicked off the ride because they would get in trouble. In a car your on state roads, where the laws are upheld by the citizens, and you’re not going to die from driving unless your in a severe crash. your going to die on a roller coaster from just riding without a harness.
@@P00LI "you don’t need a seatbelt for “motor vehicles.” - Well that's probably the most ridiculous thing anyone has ever said. "you’re not going to die from driving unless your in a severe crash" - Really? Only a severe crash? You might want to do a bit of research on that. - Of course, not forgetting serious life-altering injuries even in a moderate crash.
I love the freedom NH has. I travel up there several times a year. I do need to point out a major flaw in NH that contradicts the live free or die motto. Vehicle inspections. They are $100 a year and if you have a little rust on the fender, it wont pass. I have a friend that sprayed that spray on insulation for houses in the rust holes and spray painted it semi close to the trucks color. That will somehow make it pass. It looked terrible though. If you know the right people, they will pass you anyway. There's also a lot of mechanics that will tell you need to fix something when you don't. Since you need the car to pass, you often don't question it and get scammed. They are also way to strict on lifted vehicles. You would not believe how many nice running and driving vehicles are in junk yards up there because of a little rust spot. If you don't live in an inspection state, you could make a fortune flipping cars from up there. If you are car guy, It can be a little depressing up there seeing good cars get scrapped. I find it ironic that, "live free or die" is on the license plates up there but there is no freedom when it comes to your vehicle. I hope NH fixes this issue soon. In my mind, it would be the perfect place to live if they fix it.
Actually the inspection process isn’t that bad. The law says you can’t have any sharp edges on your vehicles so a little rust is ok but big sharp holes in the car aren’t. But it does pay to be friends with your mechanic, cuz they decide what passes inspection and what fails! It really comes down to who’s doing the inspection and how picky they are.
@@destroyingdadxx2274 How is that not that bad? That's terrible. Anything more than a spot of rust will not pass unless you are good friends with the guy inspecting. Most of my vehicles would not pass and they have very little rust.
The best thing about NH is the roads. They are maintained excellently compared to MA. No matter what the road you are on as soon as you cross the border the roads are smooth as compared to the WW1 battle field conditions in MA.
Yes, I think it's fascinating when school students are murdered in a mass shooting by someone who's exercised their constitutional rights, and the residents of New Hampshire all stand around those poor innocent children singing the Star Spangled Banner with their hands over their hearts. God bless America, the land of the free. Hint: America is not free.
Gun ownership stems from that stupid thing known as the second amendment, which was written when exactly? For what reasoning and purpose exactly? It had nothing to do with people owning guns for self-defense. It was written after an event (the war of independence) when it was determined that America lacked firepower. Come forward 250 years, now with a very strong military, I think America now has adequate firepower. "being necessary to the security of a free State". Not for self-defense. In fact, now, not at all. Anyone who believes guns beat guns, or more guns beat guns, are proven wrong every single day. I just think of those poor children who innocently lose their lives because it's a person's right to own a semi-automatic rifle.
@@neildarby2719 I’ve been here for about a year and a half and I got to say it’s a lot quieter than CT. Prices are relatively a little bit cheaper and there really isn’t much tax unless of course you own a house.
I'm from Maryland which is basically a no freedom state. But, the one glaring thing I have noticed between New Hampshire and Maryland is vehicle inspections. Here in Maryland you only have to get the car inspected once, when it is either sold or transferred. Requiring inspections every year is insane to me. I get maintaining your vehicle affects other people, but every year seems a bit over the top. 5 years seems more sensible. But I'm an out of stater and have no idea how the climate affects the cars there so take my opinion at will. Other than that, New Hampshire seems like my soul state. Peaceful, free, distrustful of government and just the right amount of cold. Love the common sense approach. If me wearing a seatbelt or not only affects me, why the hell are you putting your grubby little hands and forcing me what to do? Always erked me. Glad New Hampshire is sensible.
the inspection up here is welfare for repair shops, sadly there are a lot of them that will tell you it doesn't pass and fix things that were never broke, but i've also lived in stated with no inspection, and the Fines for various unsafe items in a no inspection state can far exceed what the inspections cost here
Hey you legally don’t need insurance in NH so you can save money by not getting that😂 I don’t have it if your risky like me and are a decent driver it’s fine
@@P00LI "I don’t have it if your risky like me and are a decent driver it’s fine" - "if your risky like me" ... "and are a decent driver". Well that makes no sense.
Texan here we have annual inspections while it is annoying I am very thankful the beaters people drive around here it keeps us safe from people with bad breaks etc
A Four Score Plus Native of French Canadian Indian descent, I never cease to thank my Grandparents for migrating to NH over a century ago. Their plight & woolen mill work regimen paved a greater life experience for all of us. My idyllic rearing in the mill town, with the woods, lakes & streams nearby breed nostalgia, for which I do not apologize. Yes, times have somewhat changed, but our innate spirit always moves us to tolerate it while we work around it. When asked if I've lived in NH all my life I respond ..... Not yet!
One thing not mentioned is that in NH you do not have to have auto insurance by law. Not a policy I like, but the people driving junkers seem to appreciate it.. So keep that in mind when parking in parking lots, sometimes parking further is well worth it..
that is only after they refuse to pay & it goes to court. Driving without insurance is not illegal so they can't be penalized until then @@brucesantacory1390
The point of concealed carry, is that it is concealed. I have been in hugging distance of people i knew were carrying, who i could not tell were carrying. I am sure anyone in NH has been too.
Even with the mask mandate reinstated in Nashua (until the end of January 2022) I don't wear it and I don't even carry one. No one never said a single word to me. Love it :)
A former MA Republican who moved out of MA after 50 years and love it here. NH has these Constitutional freedoms because we have a Republican majority state legislature. Democrats from out of state want to change this and they are pushing to make New Hampshire more "progressive". New Hampshire State Democrats keep pushing sales taxes, open border,s gun bans, gun confiscations, energy bans, etc. We need more Republican voters in NH to keep our freedoms, otherwise, New Hampshire will become Northern Massachusetts NY or NJ.
I'm in love with New Hampsire. After being an Army brat from birth to Nixon becoming President then serving my country in the same service I've sought to join this Republic in New Hamphire, if possible. I'll learn more of this great State forthwith. Thank you!!!
Thankfukly am moving back to New Hampshire after a long hiatus. I have kind of done what you have where I traveled extensively in ny life but always seem to gravitate back to new hampshire area.
@@elderlord5164 I don't see it as really asking for permission. They just want to know where and when you will be burning in case there is an "uncontrolled" fire. It's just the prudent thing to do. They never "reject" a permit application.
You can buy fireworks but you aren't always allowed to use them. If the Fire Department says no, then leave them packed away. There are also rules regarding distance that you may be to another person's property to discharge a firearm, whether it's for target shooting or hunting.
Thank you for watching! And yes, it definitely depends on where you live if you can fire off fireworks and/or guns - check out town website or give them a call.
The greatest thing about NH is the government bureaucracy is minimal. Unlike surrounding states where they spend far too much on their governmental bureaucracy then on the services they should provide. NH is as free of living as you're going to get in New England ✌🏽🇺🇲
We had to escape the hell hole of IL for TX. After being here for a few years we’re learning that sometimes it’s liberty in name only. And it’s hot as hell. Looking forward to our move to NH!!
Peace Love and Light.for you with your new life joirney My daighter just bought her first home in New Hampshire and she LOVE!S. It up there & never will be coming back home to Massachusetts ,,, Boston and New York are not that easy ill just say. The people in New Hampshire literally are the kindest people ,, enjoy ,,, blessed up always for you and your loced ones
I'm right behind you. Leaving NYC! I just don't know what part of NH will be a good fit for our family. What fueled the desire to leave NYC if you don't mind?
I know a guy I work with who says that some days he may feel like wearing a seatbelt or helmet, and other days he may not feel like wearing a seatbelt or helmet.
I Also live in NH, and the Fix for the Seatbelt ding, on Ebay you can buy a seatbelt extension and plug it in and the ding goes bye-bye lol. As a Biker your 80/20 is almost laughable, it's more like 90/10 and 90% are NOT wearing helmets (Go to Bike Week in Laconia and see for yourself) I live near a Golf Couse that does weddings and almost always has fireworks at the wedding party so hear em all the time, but i like em and my cats could care less. As to the Guns it's Called Constitutional Carry for a Reason, because NH Follows the US Constitution where the RIGHT of the people to Keep (own) and Bear (Carry) Arms Shall NOT be Infringed, and the NH Constitution is even Stronger than that !! I LOVE NH !!! and Wish More States Were like NH
Seatbelts are kind of a toss up, but people who refuse to wear motorcycle helmets are completely stupid. I know 2 people who refused to wear motorcycle helmets or other protective gear, one has brain damage now and the other was paralyzed for about 6 years (and thankfully recovered). They both became alcoholics as a reaction to their newfound physical conditions. I would never demand people wear the helmet, but at the same time I won't give any slack to people when they reap the consequences of their dumb choices. I would say this is the ideal outcome of the freedoms we have in NH, except our propery taxes go toward paying for people who collect disability for stuff like this. I guess it's the "freedom tax".
@@MassiveSwordAndCards clearly you've never heard of insurance, or motorcycle training, i'm fully covered if i crash, and i just passed 58 years riding motorcycles last sept, and the only time i wear a helmet is when i go to Massachusetts where i am forced to, or it's cold lol
In NYC Ferrets were illegal. Thanks for the fireworks heads up. I’m detesting NY & am looking to rent even a room up north. I’m retired. I’ve subscribed, you have a variety of good info!
Other than time in the military, I’ve lived most of my life in Texas, but Dallas area is just too crowded now, and weary of these brutally long, hot summers. If I ever consider the Northeast, New Hampshire seems the only viable option. l’ve visited, love the history.
Hello, we are really enjoying your videos on New Hampshire. We were just there on vacation at the beginning of October and really love it. We have been looking for a home but may build instead. Have you done a video on pros & cons or the what to know before you build a house in New Hampshire that I may have overlooked. Or direct me to a website that may have information on that subject.
I just posted the Pros and Cons Video about NH: ua-cam.com/video/BOMi5N0ycR0/v-deo.html I am also noticing more and more people looking to purchase land to build, so stay tuned for a video about that process. In the meantime, I would research 'Custom Home Builders' in NH and poke around their websites for information.
The 21 years old only applies to pistol purchases, not to long guns, which can be purchased at age 18. Also we have self defense standards called "Stand Your Ground" and "Castle Doctrine" that ensure that people have an absolute right to self defense, there is no duty to retreat etc. Also machine guns and silencers are legal here subject only to ATF transfer tax and federal registration. Finally, New Hampshire abolished ALL knife/dirk/dagger/sword laws, so you can not only carry a gun openly or concealed without a license, you can carry any type of sword or knife as well. Contrary to the expectations of the authoritarians, NH is not awash in crime, our crime rates are lower than Switzerland. Some other important liberties: No personal income tax, and politicians are generally expected to sign a pledge not to enact one by most voters. We also have a strong homeschooling community and school choice laws enabling parents to send their children to any school they wish with their Education Freedom Grants and even to homeschool their children with minimal oversight.
And NO EMINENT DOMAIN! Went out of my way to be in NH and stay in NH. It is my first choice among states for many reasons. Yet, like everywhere else there are unfortunate limits. Showy fireworks allowed but not firecrackers or purely exploding fireworks, vehicle inspections should be dropped as they are in Florida, restrictions on building on class 6 roads should be removed, most zoning restrictions should be removed, wetland restriction need drastic update or removal for single family homes, septic system and waste water regulations need drastic update as they do not currently even allow perfectly sanitary alternative systems. Permits for raising fish like tillapia should be eliminated. Specific requirements to be called a Naturopathic doctor were made law because one school offering that training lobbied for it to the exclusion of others. Curtilage rights of government trespass should be completely eliminated. Homeschool restrictions could be improved. And many other things.
A law will go into effect on July 1, 2021, requiring many more people to have a state license before they can own or care for wildlife in Arizona. Permits are available for rehabilitation, bat dealers, private game farms, scientific activity, and White Amur stocking and restocking. Each permit comes with its own set of stipulations on what you can and cannot own. If a resident chooses to move out of Arizona, it is against the law to take the pet with you in most cases. The animals cannot be sold but must be gifted to another person. also it is against the law to own a water buffalo, well thank goodness for that I almost bought one!!! lol lol 😂
By the year 2030, New Hampshire is still the only state with no seat belt law for occupants who are 18 years old and older, while 49 other states does have mandatory seat belt law. New Hampshire should have 10 cents deposit on cans and bottles like 5 other New England States.
So as a former citizen of NH (grew up in Litchfield, lived all over, left from Berlin) but now am a citizen of Oklahoma, I have to say this. While yes; all of what you have said is true, there are still way more "rules laws and regs.", that they DO have that a lot of other states done have. I love NH, and miss a lot of things about it. However. While I may be paying "state sales tax and income tax(though I won't pay that either as I don't make enough to pay), my property taxes here are basicly a joke. NH has a horrible property tax rate, and then that also depends on where you live there. Register your vehicle in NH, and BAM!!! WOWZERZ!!!!! You will be hit year after year with a horribly high registration fee here less than $100 no matter how new or old your vehicle is. Gun laws here? Nearly the same as NH. The only difference is yes, must have a concealed weapons permit. Oh boo hoo... it's a small fee, and a 4 hr class, and I'm ok with that. NH is unfortunately surrounded by very to extremely liberal states, and while they have fought off a lot of the crap from the other states, the Beautiful state of NH is slowly marching towards it themselves. I miss this beautiful state. But I'm glad to have found a state with more "freedoms" than we had there.... though, no state is perfect[unfortunately]... great video though...😊
@@Geneiveve no mandates here in Oklahoma, mask are personal preference, but I see maybe 1 out of 10 wearing them. The only place that I see the most mask wearing at, is at Walmart. [That's where I get the 10:1 ratio]. Take Walmart out of that equation, then that number would be more like 1 out of 50 people. Now... I live in south central Oklahoma (the I-35 corridor) and so we are not in a super populated area. But even if I go to bigger areas it's still about the same. As far as I can tell, there is no vaccine mandate here as well...
You need a permit to have a fire in NH. To me that is far from free. Fire is a basic human necessity. How can they call themselves free when they must ask the governments permission to have a campfire? I call BS on This so called freedom.
Thanks for the comment! I know this is something that is town specific, including how many and if it's based on acreage, and some have permits for chickens and roosters. I would just call the town offices in the town you are interested in and ask (this info is usually on the town websites but can be hard to find).
In Manchester, one of the most populated towns (some might even call it a city), you can have a chicken as long as you have 1+ acre. I doubt there are many homes with that much land there, though. In most other towns, there are no restrictions at all until you start talking about roosters. Since roosters would break any noise ordinance, you need to be out in the woods like I am if you want to eliminate any chance of getting slapped by the sheriff. And even then, you could end up with asshole neighbors like mine who live almost 100ft away yet complained constantly about our rooster. They couldn't legally do anything about it because there's no noise law here, but we decided to give the chicken away just to avoid their constant complaining. Stupid city people move into farmland and start complaining that there's farm animals. Insanity.
@@MassiveSwordAndCards Completely agree, it is insanity! One of the things I'm afraid of is not knowing who my neighbors will be when purchasing a home. I love animals and hope to have many chickens, goats and possibly a donkey.
5 states don't have sales tax. 9 don't have earned income tax. NH is in both and doing away with dividend tax. I don't wear my seatbelt. I just leave it plugged in and don't even notice it when I sit on it. I've never gotten a ticket even thought it's illegal to not wear it in my state of FL.
I'm a New Hampshire resident watching my state doing just the opposite of what the motto implies. Recent draconian restrictions to women's reproductive rights, Penalties for teachers addressing, even allowing the discussion, of racial discrimination in the classroom, new restrictive measures regarding voting even in the absence of any demonstrable problems. There is definite energy put into assuring the right to bear arms, but minimal effort into resolving the ever growing population of homeless citizens. While we lack a sales tax, we have, varies by municipality, an eye opening property tax which has escalated in 2022. For some older adults on fixed incomes who are lifelong New Hampshireites, this has become a major issue as state property tax adjustments for seniors are only available if the senior earns around the federal poverty level and the supports are fairly insignificant. Love my state, there are many good and caring people here, people who are warm and welcoming and will come to the aide of their neighbors, but lets be honest about the issues.
Abortion is legal during the first 2 trimesters of pregnancy - plenty of time for a woman to have it done if she so chooses. Showing an ID to prove residency of NH to vote here is not restrictive. Try making a bank withdrawal without ID.
LOL watch much CNN LOL wow your socialism reeks !! 1st the NH Restrictions on abortion ARE LESS THAN those i Socialist Europe, and if you can't make up you mind to kill your child in the proper time in this day and age with the day after pill, you maybe belong in jail. Teachers should be teaching reading and math and history, not liberal propaganda, and in NH a state that is 98% or more White, we've never had any race issues, except when Massachusetts liberals come up and accuse people of a racism that was never there. and only restriction to voting is register and show an ID !!
Also New Hampshire is the only state where auto insurance is not required. There is no knife that is illegal in New Hampshire. All auto knives of any size are OK.
I lived in NH for 4 years and I want to move back. Could I talk to you at some point regarding rentals and possibly other options and how would I do so?
"Unlike most other states, New Hampshire does not force its drivers to carry car insurance. However, drivers remain liable for any and all damage they cause in an at-fault collision. Failure to maintain auto insurance puts you at great risk, as you could be responsible for many thousands of dollars in damages and injury payments."
If you're financing a vehicle you will need auto insurance regardless of the state law because you cannot get an auto loan without providing proof of insurance.
21 to buy fireworks. No big boom ones though. What about cassowary? Can carry open as well. Also no conviction of misdemeanor domestic violence. It’s a federal prohibition. Law is fuzzy about guns in bars.
I moved from MA 100 acre property that I sold for $725k. Moved to NH into an 800k property. My property tax bill here in NH is 1/3 what it was in MA, and my overall tax burden went way down.y car insurance dropped 60%. No state income tax on my paycheck. Etc etc etc...they call it the NH advantage. Calling all freedom lovers! #LiveFreeOrDIE
I’m a Granite stater and glad of it. We have the loosest gun laws in the nation, and we are one of the top five safest states to live in. Criminals like soft targets. However up here, there’s a good likelihood that’s not going to be the case. An armed society, is a polite society.
NH was the first of the original colonies to adopt a real constitution in 1776. What Connecticut had is only consider a “constitution” by a historian from Connecticut, no one outside it. You only got the nickname in 1959 lmao
Death Before Dictation is my motto. I live in Alabama.....if I was not moving out of the U.S. to Sweden in the next few years, I 100% would move to your state.
Are people respectful of personal boundaries in NH, or do they see that as an infringement of living free? I get overstimulated and would probably not tolerate the seat belt beeping just cause someone wants to be stubborn. 😅
I've lived in NH for 23 years. Never had someone refuse to wear a seatbelt, but there are tons of people who prefer not to, so if you plan to give strangers rides, you probably will need to remind them like I do. A lot of people here believe that seatbelts are actually more dangerous to wear than not wear, because of the few circumstances where that may be true. I think it's just a poor excuse people use when they should really just say "I don't like to wear it".
I am from Vermont but I love New Hampshire. I love my home but the political decisions the people have made here is making it worse and worse. Many native-born Vermonters move out of the state on account on how un-affordable it has become, including taxes. Our rights have been continuously chipped away by people who move into places like Burlington from outside the state, who want to turn us into another New York or Massachusetts or California. And how un-friendly we are to business and enterprise isn't conducive for creating jobs. I don't want to leave my home, my family has called the land of Vermont home since before the Vermont Republic; but I find myself forced to. I need to get out of this state, it is stressful living here, and New Hampshire is at the top of my list (with Tennessee being 2nd). New Hampshire has a similar physical environment to VT, it has similar architecture and feel, it has a similar historical culture (rural northern New England) and most of all its right next to my home while still holding onto liberty and a desire to produce an environment the average Joe can live in.
There are a lot of NH citizens that want that to change, and many ways to get involved to make your voice heard. It does seem odd that we are behind on that freedom. Thank you for commenting!
Yes, there are taxes on raw land, but the assessed value is less than developed land. It would be calculated the same way as other property, which I go over in this video: ua-cam.com/video/lK9gF972W-s/v-deo.html
@@NHHomeandHustle the restriction on plants is VERY valid. it's to keep plant funguses and viruses out of ecosystems that have no immunities to them. just look up what happened to the american chestnut trees and you'll see why it's a perfectly valid restriction.
Hello! It depends on if the land already has septic and well approval as well as proximity to other services. It has also been difficult to find contractors that are available to build in the near future and therefore you would purchase sooner with an existing home. Thanks for the comment!
Under 18 you have to wear a seatbelt/helmet, but over 18 you don't? Well that makes no sense. So on the one hand they're acknowledging the true and proven benefits of wearing seatbelts/helmets, but once you reach a certain age, those benefits are a choice? Yet even in NH, it's a proven fact there are more deaths and injuries when a person doesn't wear these. Those poor families who have to look after someone who otherwise wouldn't have sustained a serious injury, decided not to wear a seatbelt/helmet, then sustains life-altering injuries for the rest of their life. How selfish. What, just for the sake of having to do something as innocent as wearing a seatbelt/helmet?

Have you actually looked at the research and countless testing of what happens to a person when they're involved in only a low-speed accident when not wearing a seatbelt? - But anyway, you don't get it. As I said, if you think such a thing is isolated to the selfish person who decided not to wear a seatbelt, THINK AGAIN.
@@thepsychologist8159 haha it actually says the right of the people and you keep mentioning these things like they're problems but NH is one of the safest and most highly developed places in the world you're just salty about your own tyrannical government that coddles adults
Here in Oregon we have a lot of people on welfare, and we have legalized everything including marijuana and assisted suicide. So I am trying to get our state to change our licence plate motto to say " Live free then die."
The authorities find ways to collect revenue. If they don't collect from a sales tax, they'll nickel and dime you somewhere else or " charge" you for a service. Separately, I'm glad the 80 percent still have the brains to wear a seat belt and helmet
Liquor is controlled by the state and marijuana pissession for personal recreational use is illegal even though every state including Canada it's legal
@@madlife3770 I think he meant to say every state surrounding NH (ME,MA,VT) plus Quebec all allow recreation marijuana, it is a big oversight in regards to personal freedom that NH proclaims to.
You need to provide more information about laws like seat belts and helmets. It is fine with me if you don't want to use them but if someone sustains deeper injuries because of that decision am I paying for it? Most insurance companies pool a group of people and offer good rates at first and then raise rates as more and more of those people get sick or injured. I sure am not interested in paying for others stupidity.
I grew up in Hollis and later my 40s in Wolfeboro. It’s a freaking police state. The extreme right wing conservatives majority love that law and order bs. The place is loaded with gun nuts and bikers. They’re better than Mainer’s about “people from away”, but not by much. I lived there too, on Mt.Desert Island. If you made it past high school and traveled around the world, then some areas of Vermont should be considered. Especially nearer the NY border and not NH side. Hanover/ Dartmouth being an exception and Portsmouth on the coast to a degree. All the towns around the ski towns are sweet because they’re more inclusive and have people from all over. Vermont is by far the most beautiful. It’s because the PH level of the soil is perfect; therefore the Green Mountains. It’s way more laid back. Burlington is great college town with really nice surrounding towns. Montpelier is much smaller and even more laid back and friendly. Rutland has lots of typical mill town issues. Winters in the northern part of the state are much harsher than the southern part.
Hi, I'm a Swede currently living in New Zealand. I've lived in several countries, but none with the values that you describe. It's a compelling reason to move to New Hampshire - maybe one day. Part of my family lived in the USSR. From them I learned not to take freedom for granted or to trivialize it.
Thanks for sharing, that is an important perspective!
@jvik: We, the people, would live for you to move here and value freedom.
You can contact the free State project, they are working to make NH more free and help all people around the world move here who will help do just that.
One of my best friends here is from Sweden, he is the most amazing chef!
Always Loved New Hampshire safe and Free place to live.
At 2:28 we don't have a sales tax, but beer is taxed, wine and liquor are not taxed. If you dine out - fast food to 5 star - we have a meals tax. Think convenience store food items are taxed. We have a tax on gasoline/diesel and on cigarettes. We have no income tax (except on dividends) and no inheritance tax, but our property taxes are higher. Liquor can only be purchased at state liquor stores - We have some stores on our highway rest stops.
I lived in NH for 20 years now and loving it.
How is it now? :) Looking for 4 seasons (mainly fall and winter), low taxes, NO VACCINE MANDATES, reasonable cost of living/rent, right to bear arms and free speech. Would LOVE some insight! :)
@@jammingalwaysI live here. It’s basically a southern state, and I can say that because I went to college in Virginia for 4 years. Its a southern state without the stereotypical “stupid” “slow” southerners, and in fact is one of the most educated states. Its has some of the most lenient laws for guns you can buy a gun at 16 with no license and open carry without one, no state tax and that’s why everyone from MA comes to buy stuff here. Not to mention it’s a top 3 richest state in the US so you’ll make wayyy more and keep way more in your pocket because of the low taxes. You can buy very cheap land with acres of land, and build a house for a quarter of the price you would be able to buy one in MA with .1 acre.
I would highly recommend living here ONLY if you carry conservative values and don’t bring liberal views and try to change the great laws and views we value here! It’s horrible when people from MA move here because it’s cheaper and they can have nicer things but carry their same views which will ultimately change the state to exactly the things they left!
@@P00LI Just out of interest, when adults visit amusement parks in New Hampshire that have roller coasters (or any other rides for that matter), are the riders who are over 18 years old given a choice not to wear a safety harness ? If so, I assume there are plenty of adults who choose not to. How does that work out for them? Any deaths or injuries?
If there's no choice, why not?
@@thepsychologist8159 you don’t need a seatbelt for “motor vehicles.” Roller coasters aren’t motor powered. If your upside down or that high up I bet anybody over the age of 18 wouldn’t be stupid enough to not wear one, if they are they should’ve died a while ago. Also your on their property you follow their rules, under their insurance guidelines to wear one or your probably kicked off the ride because they would get in trouble. In a car your on state roads, where the laws are upheld by the citizens, and you’re not going to die from driving unless your in a severe crash. your going to die on a roller coaster from just riding without a harness.
@@P00LI "you don’t need a seatbelt for “motor vehicles.”
- Well that's probably the most ridiculous thing anyone has ever said.
"you’re not going to die from driving unless your in a severe crash"
- Really? Only a severe crash? You might want to do a bit of research on that.
- Of course, not forgetting serious life-altering injuries even in a moderate crash.
I love the freedom NH has. I travel up there several times a year. I do need to point out a major flaw in NH that contradicts the live free or die motto. Vehicle inspections. They are $100 a year and if you have a little rust on the fender, it wont pass. I have a friend that sprayed that spray on insulation for houses in the rust holes and spray painted it semi close to the trucks color. That will somehow make it pass. It looked terrible though. If you know the right people, they will pass you anyway. There's also a lot of mechanics that will tell you need to fix something when you don't. Since you need the car to pass, you often don't question it and get scammed. They are also way to strict on lifted vehicles. You would not believe how many nice running and driving vehicles are in junk yards up there because of a little rust spot. If you don't live in an inspection state, you could make a fortune flipping cars from up there. If you are car guy, It can be a little depressing up there seeing good cars get scrapped. I find it ironic that, "live free or die" is on the license plates up there but there is no freedom when it comes to your vehicle. I hope NH fixes this issue soon. In my mind, it would be the perfect place to live if they fix it.
It would be till then, Imma move there and use the Montana Loophole.
give the bastards an inch..........
@@AshleyOnYT --- Type *The Pitfalls Of The Montana License Plate Scam-Japolink* in your search window. You may think otherwise after reading about it.
Actually the inspection process isn’t that bad. The law says you can’t have any sharp edges on your vehicles so a little rust is ok but big sharp holes in the car aren’t. But it does pay to be friends with your mechanic, cuz they decide what passes inspection and what fails! It really comes down to who’s doing the inspection and how picky they are.
@@destroyingdadxx2274 How is that not that bad? That's terrible. Anything more than a spot of rust will not pass unless you are good friends with the guy inspecting. Most of my vehicles would not pass and they have very little rust.
The best thing about NH is the roads. They are maintained excellently compared to MA. No matter what the road you are on as soon as you cross the border the roads are smooth as compared to the WW1 battle field conditions in MA.
I couldn't agree more, I'm from Rhode Island, roads are terrible here... my sister lives in NH, roads are perfect, even when it snows
barefooting actually works here!
In New Hampshire the U.S. Constitution lives! The right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed!
Yes, I think it's fascinating when school students are murdered in a mass shooting by someone who's exercised their constitutional rights, and the residents of New Hampshire all stand around those poor innocent children singing the Star Spangled Banner with their hands over their hearts. God bless America, the land of the free. Hint: America is not free.
Gun ownership stems from that stupid thing known as the second amendment, which was written when exactly? For what reasoning and purpose exactly? It had nothing to do with people owning guns for self-defense. It was written after an event (the war of independence) when it was determined that America lacked firepower. Come forward 250 years, now with a very strong military, I think America now has adequate firepower.
"being necessary to the security of a free State". Not for self-defense. In fact, now, not at all. Anyone who believes guns beat guns, or more guns beat guns, are proven wrong every single day.
I just think of those poor children who innocently lose their lives because it's a person's right to own a semi-automatic rifle.

Don’t vote for policies that made you leave CT.
I definitely know I moved here for the better.
I’m moving from cT to NH I just wanna ask what u think about living I’m moving there for job purpose
@@neildarby2719 I’ve been here for about a year and a half and I got to say it’s a lot quieter than CT. Prices are relatively a little bit cheaper and there really isn’t much tax unless of course you own a house.
I'm from Maryland which is basically a no freedom state. But, the one glaring thing I have noticed between New Hampshire and Maryland is vehicle inspections. Here in Maryland you only have to get the car inspected once, when it is either sold or transferred. Requiring inspections every year is insane to me. I get maintaining your vehicle affects other people, but every year seems a bit over the top. 5 years seems more sensible. But I'm an out of stater and have no idea how the climate affects the cars there so take my opinion at will.
Other than that, New Hampshire seems like my soul state. Peaceful, free, distrustful of government and just the right amount of cold. Love the common sense approach. If me wearing a seatbelt or not only affects me, why the hell are you putting your grubby little hands and forcing me what to do? Always erked me. Glad New Hampshire is sensible.
the inspection up here is welfare for repair shops, sadly there are a lot of them that will tell you it doesn't pass and fix things that were never broke, but i've also lived in stated with no inspection, and the Fines for various unsafe items in a no inspection state can far exceed what the inspections cost here
Hey you legally don’t need insurance in NH so you can save money by not getting that😂 I don’t have it if your risky like me and are a decent driver it’s fine
@@P00LI "I don’t have it if your risky like me and are a decent driver it’s fine"
- "if your risky like me" ... "and are a decent driver". Well that makes no sense.
Texan here we have annual inspections while it is annoying I am very thankful the beaters people drive around here it keeps us safe from people with bad breaks etc
Live free or die. I feel that motto personally because living without freedom is like your soul is dead.
A Four Score Plus Native of French Canadian Indian descent, I never cease to thank my Grandparents for migrating to NH over a century ago. Their plight & woolen mill work regimen paved a greater life experience for all of us. My idyllic rearing in the mill town, with the woods, lakes & streams nearby breed nostalgia, for which I do not apologize. Yes, times have somewhat changed, but our innate spirit always moves us to tolerate it while we work around it. When asked if I've lived in NH all my life I respond ..... Not yet!
Thank you for such an eloquent comment! It made me nostalgic as well for my childhood spent exploring in the woods.
@@NHHomeandHustle Same for me growing up in Maine, not far from NH.
One thing not mentioned is that in NH you do not have to have auto insurance by law.
Not a policy I like, but the people driving junkers seem to appreciate it.. So keep that in mind when parking in parking lots, sometimes parking further is well worth it..
but as protection from uninsured if hit in NH by and uninsured person they lose their license to drive unto you are made whole
that is only after they refuse to pay & it goes to court. Driving without insurance is not illegal so they can't be penalized until then
@@brucesantacory1390
The point of concealed carry, is that it is concealed. I have been in hugging distance of people i knew were carrying, who i could not tell were carrying. I am sure anyone in NH has been too.
Even with the mask mandate reinstated in Nashua (until the end of January 2022) I don't wear it and I don't even carry one. No one never said a single word to me. Love it :)
You forgot that we may not have a sales tax, we do have a 8'5% Room and Meals Tax, that taxes any prepared meal at a resturant or grocery store.
I always loved going to Concord and Manchester. However, the first thing that usually comes to mind is Nature.
A former MA Republican who moved out of MA after 50 years and love it here. NH has these Constitutional freedoms because we have a Republican majority state legislature. Democrats from out of state want to change this and they are pushing to make New Hampshire more "progressive". New Hampshire State Democrats keep pushing sales taxes, open border,s gun bans, gun confiscations, energy bans, etc. We need more Republican voters in NH to keep our freedoms, otherwise, New Hampshire will become Northern Massachusetts NY or NJ.
I'm in love with New Hampsire. After being an Army brat from birth to Nixon becoming President then serving my country in the same service I've sought to join this Republic in New Hamphire, if possible. I'll learn more of this great State forthwith. Thank you!!!

You can't have a fire without a permit in NH. How can you consider yourself free if you can't have a fire without asking for permission?
@@elderlord5164 I don't see it as really asking for permission. They just want to know where and when you will be burning in case there is an "uncontrolled" fire. It's just the prudent thing to do. They never "reject" a permit application.

@@jables3377 It's one little nuisance that's none of the Government's business.
You can buy fireworks but you aren't always allowed to use them. If the Fire Department says no, then leave them packed away.
There are also rules regarding distance that you may be to another person's property to discharge a firearm, whether it's for target shooting or hunting.
Thank you for watching! And yes, it definitely depends on where you live if you can fire off fireworks and/or guns - check out town website or give them a call.
Moved from Massachusetts to New Hampshire in 1992. Glad I did.
The greatest thing about NH is the government bureaucracy is minimal. Unlike surrounding states where they spend far too much on their governmental bureaucracy then on the services they should provide. NH is as free of living as you're going to get in New England ✌🏽🇺🇲
Moved here 3 years ago from Boston and love it.
My family has been in New Hampshire for over 200 years. Property taxes are hurting people.
Wow, I rather have higher property tax and freedom rather than higher everything and no Constitutional freedom like in CA.
We had to escape the hell hole of IL for TX. After being here for a few years we’re learning that sometimes it’s liberty in name only. And it’s hot as hell. Looking forward to our move to NH!!

Is there a way to disable the dinging?
look into seatbelt "extenders" they're like $8

As a Biker your 80/20 is almost laughable, it's more like 90/10 and 90% are NOT wearing helmets (Go to Bike Week in Laconia and see for yourself) I live near a Golf Couse that does weddings and almost always has fireworks at the wedding party so hear em all the time, but i like em and my cats could care less. As to the Guns it's Called Constitutional Carry for a Reason, because NH Follows the US Constitution where the RIGHT of the people to Keep (own) and Bear (Carry) Arms Shall NOT be Infringed, and the NH Constitution is even Stronger than that !! I LOVE NH !!! and Wish More States Were like NH
It's true - I have seen far less motorcycle helmet use since the pandemic. This summer especially! Thanks for watching!
Seatbelts are kind of a toss up, but people who refuse to wear motorcycle helmets are completely stupid. I know 2 people who refused to wear motorcycle helmets or other protective gear, one has brain damage now and the other was paralyzed for about 6 years (and thankfully recovered). They both became alcoholics as a reaction to their newfound physical conditions. I would never demand people wear the helmet, but at the same time I won't give any slack to people when they reap the consequences of their dumb choices. I would say this is the ideal outcome of the freedoms we have in NH, except our propery taxes go toward paying for people who collect disability for stuff like this. I guess it's the "freedom tax".
@@MassiveSwordAndCards clearly you've never heard of insurance, or motorcycle training, i'm fully covered if i crash, and i just passed 58 years riding motorcycles last sept, and the only time i wear a helmet is when i go to Massachusetts where i am forced to, or it's cold

Hello, we are really enjoying your videos on New Hampshire. We were just there on vacation at the beginning of October and really love it. We have been looking for a home but may build instead. Have you done a video on pros & cons or the what to know before you build a house in New Hampshire that I may have overlooked. Or direct me to a website that may have information on that subject.
I just posted the Pros and Cons Video about NH: ua-cam.com/video/BOMi5N0ycR0/v-deo.html
I am also noticing more and more people looking to purchase land to build, so stay tuned for a video about that process. In the meantime, I would research 'Custom Home Builders' in NH and poke around their websites for information.
The 21 years old only applies to pistol purchases, not to long guns, which can be purchased at age 18. Also we have self defense standards called "Stand Your Ground" and "Castle Doctrine" that ensure that people have an absolute right to self defense, there is no duty to retreat etc. Also machine guns and silencers are legal here subject only to ATF transfer tax and federal registration. Finally, New Hampshire abolished ALL knife/dirk/dagger/sword laws, so you can not only carry a gun openly or concealed without a license, you can carry any type of sword or knife as well. Contrary to the expectations of the authoritarians, NH is not awash in crime, our crime rates are lower than Switzerland.
Some other important liberties: No personal income tax, and politicians are generally expected to sign a pledge not to enact one by most voters. We also have a strong homeschooling community and school choice laws enabling parents to send their children to any school they wish with their Education Freedom Grants and even to homeschool their children with minimal oversight.
It sounds marvelous to me.
If you buckle your seatbelt and then get into the seat, it won't beep at you
Thanks for the info!
Thanks for watching! If there are any other topics about NH that you'd like discussed, please let me know.
And NO EMINENT DOMAIN! Went out of my way to be in NH and stay in NH. It is my first choice among states for many reasons. Yet, like everywhere else there are unfortunate limits. Showy fireworks allowed but not firecrackers or purely exploding fireworks, vehicle inspections should be dropped as they are in Florida, restrictions on building on class 6 roads should be removed, most zoning restrictions should be removed, wetland restriction need drastic update or removal for single family homes, septic system and waste water regulations need drastic update as they do not currently even allow perfectly sanitary alternative systems. Permits for raising fish like tillapia should be eliminated. Specific requirements to be called a Naturopathic doctor were made law because one school offering that training lobbied for it to the exclusion of others. Curtilage rights of government trespass should be completely eliminated. Homeschool restrictions could be improved. And many other things.

Somehow every other New England state has legalized cannabis, yet the Live Free Or Die state can’t even get this done.
A law will go into effect on July 1, 2021, requiring many more people to have a state license before they can own or care for wildlife in Arizona. Permits are available for rehabilitation, bat dealers, private game farms, scientific activity, and White Amur stocking and restocking. Each permit comes with its own set of stipulations on what you can and cannot own. If a resident chooses to move out of Arizona, it is against the law to take the pet with you in most cases. The animals cannot be sold but must be gifted to another person. also it is against the law to own a water buffalo, well thank goodness for that I almost bought one!!! lol lol 😂
By the year 2030, New Hampshire is still the only state with no seat belt law for occupants who are 18 years old and older, while 49 other states does have mandatory seat belt law. New Hampshire should have 10 cents deposit on cans and bottles like 5 other New England States.

I Love this state!!!
Love paying no sales tax!!!
Great video!
Thanks for watching!
Sounds like my kind of place for sure.
So as a former citizen of NH (grew up in Litchfield, lived all over, left from Berlin) but now am a citizen of Oklahoma, I have to say this. While yes; all of what you have said is true, there are still way more "rules laws and regs.", that they DO have that a lot of other states done have. I love NH, and miss a lot of things about it.
However. While I may be paying "state sales tax and income tax(though I won't pay that either as I don't make enough to pay), my property taxes here are basicly a joke. NH has a horrible property tax rate, and then that also depends on where you live there. Register your vehicle in NH, and BAM!!! WOWZERZ!!!!! You will be hit year after year with a horribly high registration fee here less than $100 no matter how new or old your vehicle is.
Gun laws here? Nearly the same as NH. The only difference is yes, must have a concealed weapons permit. Oh boo hoo... it's a small fee, and a 4 hr class, and I'm ok with that.
NH is unfortunately surrounded by very to extremely liberal states, and while they have fought off a lot of the crap from the other states, the Beautiful state of NH is slowly marching towards it themselves.
I miss this beautiful state. But I'm glad to have found a state with more "freedoms" than we had there.... though, no state is perfect[unfortunately]... great video though...😊
Thank you for the comment. It was very insightful and a great perspective to have from a former resident.

@@Geneiveve no mandates here in Oklahoma, mask are personal preference, but I see maybe 1 out of 10 wearing them. The only place that I see the most mask wearing at, is at Walmart.

I live in south central Oklahoma (the I-35 corridor) and so we are not in a super populated area. But even if I go to bigger areas it's still about the same. As far as I can tell, there is no vaccine mandate here as well...

What about NH? Mandates?
You need a permit to have a fire in NH. To me that is far from free. Fire is a basic human necessity. How can they call themselves free when they must ask the governments permission to have a campfire? I call BS on This so called freedom.

Thanks for watching, and I agree!
Do you have to have a permit for Chickens in any part of NH?
Thanks for the comment! I know this is something that is town specific, including how many and if it's based on acreage, and some have permits for chickens and roosters. I would just call the town offices in the town you are interested in and ask (this info is usually on the town websites but can be hard to find).
In Manchester, one of the most populated towns (some might even call it a city), you can have a chicken as long as you have 1+ acre. I doubt there are many homes with that much land there, though. In most other towns, there are no restrictions at all until you start talking about roosters. Since roosters would break any noise ordinance, you need to be out in the woods like I am if you want to eliminate any chance of getting slapped by the sheriff. And even then, you could end up with asshole neighbors like mine who live almost 100ft away yet complained constantly about our rooster. They couldn't legally do anything about it because there's no noise law here, but we decided to give the chicken away just to avoid their constant complaining. Stupid city people move into farmland and start complaining that there's farm animals. Insanity.
@@MassiveSwordAndCards Completely agree, it is insanity! One of the things I'm afraid of is not knowing who my neighbors will be when purchasing a home. I love animals and hope to have many chickens, goats and possibly a donkey.

You can buckle the seat belt before you get in, so you're sitting on it. Then its a quiet ride
5 states don't have sales tax. 9 don't have earned income tax. NH is in both and doing away with dividend tax.
I don't wear my seatbelt. I just leave it plugged in and don't even notice it when I sit on it. I've never gotten a ticket even thought it's illegal to not wear it in my state of FL.
NH is the best state by far.
If you love it, there is no where else that compares! Thanks for commenting!
As a former NH resident & voter I call it the "Live Free and Die Anyway" state. Alas, there are some things that are just inevitable.
I'm a New Hampshire resident watching my state doing just the opposite of what the motto implies. Recent draconian restrictions to women's reproductive rights, Penalties for teachers addressing, even allowing the discussion, of racial discrimination in the classroom, new restrictive measures regarding voting even in the absence of any demonstrable problems. There is definite energy put into assuring the right to bear arms, but minimal effort into resolving the ever growing population of homeless citizens. While we lack a sales tax, we have, varies by municipality, an eye opening property tax which has escalated in 2022. For some older adults on fixed incomes who are lifelong New Hampshireites, this has become a major issue as state property tax adjustments for seniors are only available if the senior earns around the federal poverty level and the supports are fairly insignificant. Love my state, there are many good and caring people here, people who are warm and welcoming and will come to the aide of their neighbors, but lets be honest about the issues.
IIRC, talking about racial discrimination is allowed in classrooms. If talk of the Jim Crow laws have been outlawed, I haven't heard of it.
Abortion is not a right
Abortion is legal during the first 2 trimesters of pregnancy - plenty of time for a woman to have it done if she so chooses. Showing an ID to prove residency of NH to vote here is not restrictive. Try making a bank withdrawal without ID.
LOL watch much CNN LOL wow your socialism reeks !! 1st the NH Restrictions on abortion ARE LESS THAN those i Socialist Europe, and if you can't make up you mind to kill your child in the proper time in this day and age with the day after pill, you maybe belong in jail. Teachers should be teaching reading and math and history, not liberal propaganda, and in NH a state that is 98% or more White, we've never had any race issues, except when Massachusetts liberals come up and accuse people of a racism that was never there. and only restriction to voting is register and show an ID !!
Also New Hampshire is the only state where auto insurance is not required. There is no knife that is illegal in New Hampshire. All auto knives of any size are OK.
Thanks for sharing
I lived in NH for 4 years and I want to move back. Could I talk to you at some point regarding rentals and possibly other options and how would I do so?
And remember, when a big box store opens in your town, the sales tax you are charged is used to finance the building of said store.
we pay no sales tax
What about auto insurance?
"Unlike most other states, New Hampshire does not force its drivers to carry car insurance. However, drivers remain liable for any and all damage they cause in an at-fault collision. Failure to maintain auto insurance puts you at great risk, as you could be responsible for many thousands of dollars in damages and injury payments."
If you're financing a vehicle you will need auto insurance regardless of the state law because you cannot get an auto loan without providing proof of insurance.
I value fire over permits.
PA doesn’t have sales tax either.
Thanks for watching! I know of 5 states that do not have sales tax and PA is not one of them. Do you live in PA?

My property tax bill here in NH is 1/3 what it was in MA, and my overall tax burden went way down.y car insurance dropped 60%. No state income tax on my paycheck. Etc etc etc...they call it the NH advantage. Calling all freedom lovers! #LiveFreeOrDIE
Best part is cheaper housing no income tax nor sales tax less stress!
Also remember that no auto insurance so ppl don’t f around as much❤❤
I’m a Granite stater and glad of it. We have the loosest gun laws in the nation, and we are one of the top five safest states to live in. Criminals like soft targets. However up here, there’s a good likelihood that’s not going to be the case. An armed society, is a polite society.

Death Before Dictation is my motto. I live in Alabama.....if I was not moving out of the U.S. to Sweden in the next few years, I 100% would move to your state.
Are people respectful of personal boundaries in NH, or do they see that as an infringement of living free? I get overstimulated and would probably not tolerate the seat belt beeping just cause someone wants to be stubborn. 😅
I've lived in NH for 23 years. Never had someone refuse to wear a seatbelt, but there are tons of people who prefer not to, so if you plan to give strangers rides, you probably will need to remind them like I do. A lot of people here believe that seatbelts are actually more dangerous to wear than not wear, because of the few circumstances where that may be true. I think it's just a poor excuse people use when they should really just say "I don't like to wear it".
Constitutional!
My dream is to move to NH or Vermont
I am from Vermont but I love New Hampshire.
I love my home but the political decisions the people have made here is making it worse and worse. Many native-born Vermonters move out of the state on account on how un-affordable it has become, including taxes. Our rights have been continuously chipped away by people who move into places like Burlington from outside the state, who want to turn us into another New York or Massachusetts or California. And how un-friendly we are to business and enterprise isn't conducive for creating jobs.
I don't want to leave my home, my family has called the land of Vermont home since before the Vermont Republic; but I find myself forced to. I need to get out of this state, it is stressful living here, and New Hampshire is at the top of my list (with Tennessee being 2nd). New Hampshire has a similar physical environment to VT, it has similar architecture and feel, it has a similar historical culture (rural northern New England) and most of all its right next to my home while still holding onto liberty and a desire to produce an environment the average Joe can live in.
I miss NH, except for the black flies and being way too close to the nanny state of MA.

Live free or die unless for example your caught with the wrong plant, then your kidnapped and put in cage even though there's no victims involved..
There are a lot of NH citizens that want that to change, and many ways to get involved to make your voice heard. It does seem odd that we are behind on that freedom. Thank you for commenting!
@@NHHomeandHustle yes, wasn't trying to be butthead. The property tax is another one , is there still tax on remote raw land ?
Yes, there are taxes on raw land, but the assessed value is less than developed land. It would be calculated the same way as other property, which I go over in this video: ua-cam.com/video/lK9gF972W-s/v-deo.html
@@NHHomeandHustle the restriction on plants is VERY valid. it's to keep plant funguses and viruses out of ecosystems that have no immunities to them. just look up what happened to the american chestnut trees and you'll see why it's a perfectly valid restriction.
@@Jake-ky4yj I absolutely agree with those restrictions. I think the conversation was about an illegal substance.
You can buckle your seat belt up and sit on top of it. That way it won't bing, bing, bing.
Hello! It depends on if the land already has septic and well approval as well as proximity to other services. It has also been difficult to find contractors that are available to build in the near future and therefore you would purchase sooner with an existing home. Thanks for the comment!
Under 18 you have to wear a seatbelt/helmet, but over 18 you don't?
Well that makes no sense.
So on the one hand they're acknowledging the true and proven benefits of wearing seatbelts/helmets, but once you reach a certain age, those benefits are a choice? Yet even in NH, it's a proven fact there are more deaths and injuries when a person doesn't wear these. Those poor families who have to look after someone who otherwise wouldn't have sustained a serious injury, decided not to wear a seatbelt/helmet, then sustains life-altering injuries for the rest of their life. How selfish. What, just for the sake of having to do something as innocent as wearing a seatbelt/helmet?
it actually makes a lot of sense because children are too young to fully understand the consequences simple as that
"and again gun ownership is a big part of that"
- No, gun ownership stems from that stupid thing known as the second amendment, which was written when exactly? For what reasoning and purpose exactly? It had nothing to do with people owning guns for self-defense. It was written after an event (the war of independence) when it was determined that America lacked firepower. Come forward 250 years, now with a very strong military, I think America now has adequate firepower.
"being necessary to the security of a free State". Not for self-defense. In fact, now, not at all. Anyone who believes guns beat guns, or more guns beat guns, are proven wrong every single day.
I just think of those poor children who innocently lose their lives because it's a person's right to own a semi-automatic rifle.
@@JuniorBloxHD "it actually makes a lot of sense because children are too young to fully understand the consequences simple as that"
- I see. So the force of inertia somehow stops applying when you become an adult? Have you actually looked at the research and countless testing of what happens to a person when they're involved in only a low-speed accident when not wearing a seatbelt?
- But anyway, you don't get it. As I said, if you think such a thing is isolated to the selfish person who decided not to wear a seatbelt, THINK AGAIN.
@@thepsychologist8159 haha it actually says the right of the people and you keep mentioning these things like they're problems but NH is one of the safest and most highly developed places in the world you're just salty about your own tyrannical government that coddles adults
Cannabis??
Not yet for recreational use, but every state around us is. Thanks for asking!
God i love my state! 603 place to be
Here in Oregon we have a lot of people on welfare, and we have legalized everything including marijuana and assisted suicide. So I am trying to get our state to change our licence plate motto to say " Live free then die."
The authorities find ways to collect revenue. If they don't collect from a sales tax, they'll nickel and dime you somewhere else or " charge" you for a service. Separately, I'm glad the 80 percent still have the brains to wear a seat belt and helmet
LOVE NEW HAMPSHIRE! My home state! Live Free or Die!
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. It's nice meeting others who love their home state!
Liquor is controlled by the state and marijuana pissession for personal recreational use is illegal even though every state including Canada it's legal
It's not legal in every other state. I live in a state where not even medical marijuana is permitted.
@@madlife3770 I think he meant to say every state surrounding NH (ME,MA,VT) plus Quebec all allow recreation marijuana, it is a big oversight in regards to personal freedom that NH proclaims to.
because the democrats in those other states want their voters stoned and stupid
How are the laws for homeschooling children and unvaccinated children?
You need to provide more information about laws like seat belts and helmets. It is fine with me if you don't want to use them but if someone sustains deeper injuries because of that decision am I paying for it? Most insurance companies pool a group of people and offer good rates at first and then raise rates as more and more of those people get sick or injured. I sure am not interested in paying for others stupidity.
Which state of USA has lowest crime records and not allowed to use any guns, please
oh, you can't find a state with no guns and lower crime? maybe you should learn something...
criminals dont follow the law
cant smoke weed though
I grew up in Hollis and later my 40s in Wolfeboro. It’s a freaking police state. The extreme right wing conservatives majority love that law and order bs. The place is loaded with gun nuts and bikers. They’re better than Mainer’s about “people from away”, but not by much. I lived there too, on Mt.Desert Island. If you made it past high school and traveled around the world, then some areas of Vermont should be considered. Especially nearer the NY border and not NH side. Hanover/ Dartmouth being an exception and Portsmouth on the coast to a degree. All the towns around the ski towns are sweet because they’re more inclusive and have people from all over. Vermont is by far the most beautiful. It’s because the PH level of the soil is perfect; therefore the Green Mountains. It’s way more laid back. Burlington is great college town with really nice surrounding towns. Montpelier is much smaller and even more laid back and friendly. Rutland has lots of typical mill town issues. Winters in the northern part of the state are much harsher than the southern part.
