Great Place to Raise a Family - 9/1/2009
After spending 20 years in the USAF, I was very happy to relocate to Bow, NH. I evaluated all the places I could live in the world, and settled on Bow for numerous reasons.
- Great schools for my daughter. (Best in the state, and of primary concern to me.)
- I enjoy the changes in seasons, and am a NE guy anyway.
- Close access to the culture, shopping, and entertainment offered by Boston.
- The Manchester airport is close, and not at all congested with great service.
- The White Mountains and many other natural wonders are close as well.
- Nice country living with a nice plot of land in the woods, but still close to other folks so again my daughter has playmates.
- The city of Concord is nearby for day to day shopping and services.
- The level of income and education in Bow is relatively high. Bigotry and narrowmindedness are not things that are of any real concern (something that bothered me in several other small towns I lived in throughtout my military career).
I realize that the cost of living is high (especially property taxes and utilities), but those are sacrifices I am willing to make for my second career and ultimate retirement home. Those are offset by no sales tax and no state income tax. Once you get settled in, there really is nothing you could ask for.[read more...] |
