I have a hard time understanding why anyone lives in NH when every surrounding state is superior

This is a pretty egregious misuse of power, but the state itself is a fantastic place to live in general. Many people can find a lifestyle they desire in so many different parts of the state.

A politician or political engines misuse of power in a state can have a slow but impactful effect on everyday life of the citizens. But with the cycle being what it is and the NH house being so large any meaningful change for better or worse is hard to come by.

This is true of every surrounding state as well. What about NH do you specifically think is attractive? The whites are great.

For the most part. My family is here. :)

I wouldn't want to move to MA due to their gun laws.

ME and VT are just as nice as NH. I personally think VT is a more beautiful state up north.

In central NH, proximity to the mountains, ocean, and cities large (Boston) and small. One thing I wish was better: the food. But this is getting better in recent years.

The rhetoric of "[Region X] is bad, so people should just leave there" isn't really helpful at all. It overlooks the many challenges that might keep people from leaving their homes. You could just as easily say the same thing about the people living in Yemen, or Detroit, or Palestine, or West Virginia, or Ukraine, or Florida. "If it's such a horrible place to live, then why don't the people there just leave?" Because it's really not that easy.
