We looked at moving once, to Hollis NH. zero state income tax, zero state sales tax. Massive savings over CT. and the public high school
is ranked 1,119th in the nation. Much better.

I’m not saying every town in NH is great. What i’m
saying, is that there are specific towns in red states ( only in red states) that have a much better value proposition than comparable towns in blue states.

There’s no denying that.

You want to move to a state that has more liberals than CT and claim it’s because it’s nominally red?

In the last Presidential election, Hillsborough county flipped moderately Democratic, 52.8% to 45.2%.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
