Things You Should Know About New Hampshire
Now that you have an understanding of what separates Poseidon Moving and Storage from other moving companies, it’s time to talk a bit more about your new home in New Hampshire. It is the belief of Poseidon Moving and Storage that learning as much as possible about New Hampshire before making the final decision to move there is crucial. For that reason, our movers have compiled a list of reasons that New Hampshire is such a great place to live.
New Hampshire, also known as the Granite State, has a population of 1.36 million people as of 2019’s estimates. While there are many reasons that you should consider moving to New Hampshire, our movers have a few to tell you about. Firstly, one of the best reasons to move to New Hampshire is the fact that there’s no sales tax. Whether you buy a car, a home, or anything else, you will never have to consider sales tax in the Granite State. In fact, many people even cross over into New Hampshire from bordering states to enjoy tax-free shopping! That means you can save your money for the things you really enjoy when living in New Hampshire.
Another great reason to move to New Hampshire is the fact that it is one of the safest places to live in the country. Ranking #3 on a list of the top safest states to live in within the United States, you’ll always feel safe and sound when living in New Hampshire. In some neighborhoods, it is even a common sight to see neighbors leaving their garage doors wide open. Specifically, the Granite State’s violent crime rate of 1.7 is a total of two points below the national average of 3.7 incidents per 1,000.
Aside from being one of the safest states to live, New Hampshire is also praised for ranking 10th on the list of the 50 most healthy states in the country. New Hampshire also has the second-lowest infant mortality rate in the country. The state also has much lower rates of obesity than other states and is known for exceptional health care and mental health care.
Are you a beach lover? If so, New Hampshire might just be the place for you! With 18 miles of coastline, there are plenty of sandy shores and glistening waters for you to enjoy when moving to New Hampshire. A particularly popular beach hangout in the Granite State is Hampton Beach where you can enjoy the beach while walking the well-known boardwalk full of awesome shops, arcades, and restaurants.
Popular Towns to Visit in New Hampshire
Now that you know more about what life is like in the state of New Hampshire overall, it’s time to narrow our focus to one of the most popular towns to visit and live in the state: Manchester. With a population of 112,525 as of 2018’s estimates, Manchester is incredibly livable, enjoyable, and affordable. With great arts, entertainment, and sports options, there’s always something to enjoy in Manchester and this makes it one of the best places to live in New Hampshire by far.
One of the biggest reasons that Manchester is such a popular town in New Hampshire is due to its location. Situated in the heart of New England, Manchester offers residents easy access to Boston, Philadelphia, and New York City, as well as putting it within relatively short driving distance of Maine and Vermont. Manchester’s location also makes it a great area for enjoying a number of winter and summer activities such as tubing, swimming, hiking, and even whale watching.
Back in 2009, the Manchester-Nashua metro area ranked #1 on the Forbes List of America’s 100 Cheapest Places To Live. This is thanks, in part, due to the fact that New Hampshire has no sales tax or personal income tax. While New Hampshire is one of the lowest-tax states with both interest and dividends taxed at only 5 percent, Manchester, in particular, came in 2nd place on Kiplinger’s list of Tax-Friendly Cities making it one of the most affordable towns in New Hampshire.
The quality of life in Manchester is also a huge reason that the town is so popular for newcomers. With excellent healthcare, safe streets, low poverty rate, and a variety of educational options for residents, there are many reasons that living in Manchester is so enjoyable. If you are looking for a New Hampshire town with a high quality of life, there are few better choices than Manchester.
Long Distance Moving Tips
We hope that the information we could provide about New Hampshire and the state’s most popular town, Manchester, was valuable to you. Are you ready to make your final decision about moving to New Hampshire? If so, Poseidon Moving and Storage has a couple of long distance moving tips that you should consider during the planning and preparation process.
First, we highly recommend creating an inventory list as you prepare to move to New Hampshire. An inventory list will not only make it much easier for your chosen moving company to give you a reliable quote on their moving services but it will also make it easier for you to keep track of your household belongings during the moving process. Make creating an inventory list one of the first items on your moving to-do list!
Secondly, our movers also recommend packing your items with distance in mind. A long distance move requires a bit of additional packing effort as compared to a local move. As an example, you should take extra care with especially fragile items by carefully wrapping them in paper or bubble wrap. You should also pack fragile items together in order to keep them organized and to ensure that your movers know to take extra care with those particular items. Want to alleviate the stress of packing your items properly completely? Make sure to book with Poseidon Moving and Storage for your move to New Hampshire as we offer packing and crating services for your most fragile items!
