Reply to comment by icedcornholio in Got this sometime ago. USGS doesn't have this level of accuracy in their maps. by Peanut-Donut

I’d say that the surprisingly unfriendly poor people would be the tri state area, Dover is suffering gentrification but Somerworth/Rochester/Gonic and parts of Dover fit that description, maybe going northward you’d have Farmington, New Durham, Milton, Wakefield all are also pretty poor and definitely not what I’d call friendly. (though when in Milton always stop at Mckenzie’s farm!)

Wakefield is full of absolute morons.

While that might be technically accurate, there’s only 368 of us in town. No doubt, Somersworth has far more morons than that!

Maine, New Hampshire, and what’s the third state near the Spaulding Turnpike? Maybe you should have called it the “Bi-state” area.

You know I have no idea why that area is referred to as tri state and never really thought about it either. I know it’s something they used more often decades ago, when the quickest way north to the white mountains was through Rochester so maybe tri state refers to Mass traffic? I tried to look this up and couldn’t find an answer.

edit:

or maybe tri state refers to the three towns as they were a largely populated area of NH in the past with economic growth seeing as major roads and highways used to pass directly through them. (obviously not anymore)
