1- do you live in the city? or the country? town of about 4,000 people
2- do you have a home or apartment? very cute apartment
3- what do you pay for living expenses? $525 (heat & hot water included). Now this is VERY unusual for NH. If you live South of Concord, expect to pay $850 to $1,500 for a one or two bedroom apartment. When I tell people what I pay they can't believe it.
4- what you do LOVE about your state? The fact I can drive 30 minutes and be at the beach, 45 minutes and be up at the big lake, 1 hour and be in the mountains and 1 hour and be in Boston.
5- what do you HATE about your state? Outsiders...just kidding. Well not really. We get a lot of tourists and tons of traffic. Remember, we're a pretty small state. Just 2 weeks ago Mass had school vacation and I was on Rt. 93 North. I decided to count all the cars that were passing me....Mass...Mass....Mass....Mass....New York....Mass...Michigan....Mass.....Mass. Not one NH car passed me. But at the same time our economy grows with all of the tourists so I can't complain too much. Some towns don't like outsiders moving here. We had an incident last year in the town next to me. A sub-division was going up and somebody vandalized the place and wrote "yuppies go home". You know our state moto is...welcome to NH...now please leave. If I haven't scared you off, this would be a good time to move to NH and buy a house. Our housing market boomed big time for the past 8 years and now it's fallen like a brick. You can get a pretty decent home here for $225,000/$300,000. And so far, there are still jobs here.

Good luck! I've never been to Utah but I hear it's spectacular!
