What are the property prices like in NH? I have relatives in RI (I've lived in HI and the west coast for 35 yrs) and from what I've seen, real estate on the east coast is unbelievably high. I'm wondering about rural property. If they choose, NH, I might want to move there!

I would love to see New Hampshire win. I have lived in NH since the 80's and more and more people seem to move here for the lower costs, recreation, and quality of life.

But... they bring with them the liberal politics / big government they are used to, it hasn't reached the point of no return yet. This would be a great time for a project like this to start, I would hate for New Hampshire to go the route of Mass.

As far as real estate, it depends on what part of the state. The southern part is pricey, but you can get a lot more for you money than in Massachusettes. Property taxes are a big issue here, they keep going up as some people keep wanting more from the government. If you want to live in a rural area, there are some deals.

Here is a link to a real estate search engine for the area.

I'm wondering about rural property. If they choose, NH, I might want to move there! NH real estate is fairly pricy -- in my town (Bedford), the average home sells for around $320k, but that is a bargain compared to many towns inside the 495 belt in Massachusetts. Since NH doesn't have a sales or income tax, property taxes are fairly expensive. But there are dramatic differences between towns. Some towns are stictly bedroom communities, therefore relatively high taxes, and others with industrial/retail bases quite a bit lower. I feel that NH is losing it's "conservatism". We're an island surrounded by liberals - all states surrounding us are "blue states". Although NH does attract it's fair share of conservatives, mainly liberals from other states are moving in and dirtying the conservative environment here.

NH was indeed chosen; you're in luck!
