[quote=Anonymous]My parents retired to NH, near Dartmouth College. In addition to the favorable tax situation that many PPs have noted, this area has a lot going for it -- good restaurants and lots of interesting events on campus and in town, lots of lakes and places to hike or bike, excellent health care, beautiful weather in summer and fall. But, even if you like cold weather, are relatively healthy and hearty, are well-fixed financially and have a generator, the winters are tough. And, as others have noted, winter can be isolating and tiresome in northern New England. You will want to leave for warmer and sunnier climes for at least part of the winter. Again, even if you are well-off, organizing the travel can be tiring -- especially if you have pets. I'm not saying it's a bad idea to retire to NH, but you need to have a plan for dealing with winter. [/quote]
