New Hampshire isn't really a bad place, but it's not exactly the best place either... If you like hiking, fishing, etc. you'll find a lot to do if you go up north. If you go to Southern NH, or you're not an outdoorsy person, you'll be bored to death. Despite what everybody seems to think, the state is not full of hicks. There are some of course, but for the most part we're pretty open-minded. The public schools suck, and so do the overrated private schools.
New Hampshire isn't terrible if you like nature, cheap shopping, and you want to homeschool your kids.

New Hampshire is a socially maladjusted state that lacks diversity but has opportunity for the educated,priviliged and hard working.It takes a lot of work to make it here if you dont have this.If you dont work very hard,have a degree, sell yourself out,come from a successful family or get very lucky you probably will not go anywhere here.If you like to work hard, there is opportunity here.This isnt for wimps who like mooching the system but it does happen mostly in Nashua and Manchester.Thats why these cities have the most problems.Also some of the border towns like salem and hudson are not the best places to live and raise a family due to the constant transitional influx from mass that deteriotates the quality of living and causes crime but it does help the economy, a catch 22.People do tend to drink a lot here though and not always take the best care of themselves,probably due to stress and pressure of working and the cold winters.
Live free and work hard or get out.
The crime and unemployment are low in New Hampshire for a reason, its called WORK.

New Hampshire is on the Upper-Eastern Coast. It is part of New England and is a very agricultural area. The State Flower is lilac, while the State Wild Flower is pink lady's slippers. A largely known poet, Robert Frost, was born and raised here. New Hampshire is also home of Dartmouth University. The New Hampshire State Bird is the Purple Finch. The state's State Fruit is the pumpkin. The natives of New Hampshire are more adapt to cold weather so you may see them in shorts and tank tops when it is only 50 degrees out. Since New Hampshire natives live in a colder climate the majority of the year, their blood is thicker so tempatures seem warmer to them.
Bill: Missy where are you from?
Missy: I'm from New Hampshire. It's so warm here in Texas.
Bill: WEll it would be. To us Natives though, this is normal.
Missy: In New Hampshire, everyone would be at the beach if it was this hot.
*waves hand to create a fan*

One of the five most useless States, up there with Idaho and Nebraska.
This State is composed of the same mix of rich suburbs and small towns as most New England States but without the things that make them interesting : the cool liberal lifestyle of Vermont, coasts of Maine, and ... cities. Nashua and Manchester are really big towns.
Most things people in NH are proud of are either better in Massachusetts or actually in Massachusetts. Should this southern neighbour dissapear, New Hampshire would probably beg for (and be denied) entry into Canada, as its autonomy in most sectors (major seaport, industry, services, agriculture, and culture) is simply nonexistent.
Its main export is middle-aged white people who play golf.
Indeed, New Hampshire has the ethnic composition of a northwestern State (99% white) and its diversity is concentrated in 8 streets, 5 of them in suburban Manchester. Blacks and Latinos will be checked for drugs and guns every couple of miles on the (only) highway (worth mentioning), just to be sure.
The fact that many residents want it to stay that way should bring ample proof that this State is going nowhere.
To be fair, NH has its good sides, especially for retired middle class people looking for an affordable house or a vacation spot : nice nature, absolute lack of danger and noise, and polite people. Amazingly, the existence of Florida has saved this place from its natural role as the Northeast's giant retirement home.

The state where everybody is a pothead, yet marijuana is illegal.
The state where everybody owns a gun, yet there is hardly any gun violence.
The state where you aren't an alcoholic if you don't drink during the day.
The state where you find used needles in a field of sunflowers.
The state where idiots from the south get lost on the woods/drown because they think they are outdoorsmen.

Yeah NH's pretty... pretty dull, pretty boring, pretty depressing, pretty cold, pretty much not worth living in.
New Hampshire is boring boring boring boring and depressing.
