The city of Manchester is a beautiful city. It has great places to eat and shop.
My favorite place is the Mall of NH. There are a lot of nice shops there. I also enjoy the downtown area.
The only bad I can say about New Hampshire is the winters can be brutal and the drug issues in the southern part of the state I will say that everyone I know who can work, does. No taxes unless you own a home or buy hot food, great restaurants, people are friendly but not so much so that it's annoying, and if you love hot winters but still love skiing, this is the state for you. It's a well balanced state and I can't imagine living in any other state.
Any place but Manchester is a beautiful and quaint place to live. Unfortunately there us a drug crisis going on in Manchester that has yet to be solved.
