My theory on the peaceful capital phenomenon is the lack of growth kept it small and peaceful. There are lots of sleepy towns like this across the country and this just happens to be a state capital. I think when an area booms, it attracts lots of money and jobs but loses its sense of culture and soul as the locals get drowned out by the transplants. It also attracts an underbelly of people looking to leech off the system, and so you get the dynamic of uber wealthy and uber poor that we see in so many cities today, and both of these groups vote for bad policies that send the city into the toilet.

I grew up in Concord, so this was a fun video to see- very nicely done without. You showed most of Main Street and some average neighborhoods, but people should know there are other nice neighborhoods which have larger yards and all single family homes. Concord IS quiet but still offers some cultural venues and is very family oriented. Schools are great and crime is low - but property taxes are high because much of the city is owned by the State of NH and they don’t pay property taxes to Concord.

Concord, NH--my hometown! Love it! It's large enough to have everything you need but only a few miles from forests, lakes and undeveloped areas. An hour to the big city of Boston, an hour to the ocean and an hour to the White Mountains. People are nice--not fast paced like in Boston but not total hicks either. Since it's the state capital there are a lot of state workers and other professionals. It's actually much busier during the week than on weekends. Family friendly and safe although not much for singles. The big problem is a complete lack of housing. Actually, the entire state is in dire need of housing. Costs are high and rising fast. People from all over have moved here especially due to COVID. Escapees from Boston, Hartford and NYC are buying property sight-unseen with cash.

I’m from Concord, and graduated from Concord High School back in the day. The downtown used to be very busy before the mall on the Heights was built. That changed everything. And the mall is dead now. You missed a lot of Concord by not going up to the “Heights”, which is a part of Concord that is across the Merrimack River, up a steep hill. Most people used to go do their important shopping in either Manchester or Nashua, or their most important shopping in Boston. They could generally shop and stay in downtown Concord. It was indeed wonderful, but employment consisted mainly of state or healthcare workers. It was great going to Boston, and visiting all the museums and experiencing all the educational opportunities. My parents loved to travel, so we visited every historical place in Massachusetts, for instance, so I could see what I was studying about. The education was very good, and if you enjoyed going to school, and could afford it, you would have no trouble getting into any number of highly rated colleges or universities across the nation. The winters are long and cold, so if you are a person that needs to be outside, or surrounded by people, and cannot keep yourself busy for any amount of time, then Concord would not be the place for you. But I always loved cold, snowy, and cloudy days. Summer was ok for awhile, but I loved the fall and winter the most. I was lucky enough to earn a full scholarship to a university in Ohio, where I’ve ended up living since I graduated. But I still love New Hampshire, where my family has lived since the 1850’s. I go back to Concord quite often, and I always bring my children. I always brought them so that they could see and learn about different people and all our American history.

NH is only a little above average in cost of living. The further north you go, the cheaper it gets.

I grew up partly in Concord and some nearby towns, I think it's important to say that the older houses do look very quaint from outside, but the majority of low-density (less than 5 or 6 tenants) landlords refuse to renovate anything and will charge an arm and a leg for a drafty & dingy living space, common stuff is sagging floors, doors that barely open due to the shifting of the house, lots of peeling paint, etc. I consider it part of the New England vibe but it can quickly add up to heat an entire living space with barely any insulation, and the air can get downright foul during the winter without central air to pull it thru a filter. Thankfully it seems like those places are finally getting too dilapidated to be ignored, I see them being gutted a bit more often now.

Just for a taste of facts, the city has different areas of nationalities like Canadians, Irish, Russian, and Germans just to name the major ones. The Androscoggin river (the river that flows through the center of Berlin) drops over 1,300 ft of elevation. The name of the festival that celebrities the history of the city is called river fire (their version of an old home day), were they put wood (mainly pallets) on the boom peirs and light them on fire at first dark. And for people that like to ride ATV's, you can legally drive them on the majority of streets, like in the down town area.

I assume the harsh roads are related to the temperature differences?
@CCHunt3 жыл бұрын
Yes. Roads in New England are usually asphalt paved as repairing frost heaves on concrete roads is wildly expensive.

There is a mountain in Franconia named Cannan mountain aka "The Old Man Of The Mountain" that had a rock formation of the head of an old man formed by glaciers. Unfortunately, in 2004, it the rocks that made the outline clasped. The state did its best to keep it up for along as it could. They even strapped the rocks together with steel bars. You can still go there and see what the formation looked like on the mountain. Also, across the notch, there is an outline of an eagle. There has be times we're eagles have nested by the cliff face.
