If you need top notch healthcare you have two real options:

  1. Live within driving distance of Boston (Mass General, Brigham, Beth Israel etc). These are world class research institutions fed by Harvard Medical School.

  2. Live near Lebanon for Dartmouth. This is the only academic hospital in NH. If you have anything rare or complicated and can’t be near Boston this is where you want to be.

Central Massachusetts or the suburbs west of Boston will check off everything on your list. There are tons of trails, friendly people, and opportunities to socialize. NH is a lonely place (search this sub for “how do i meet people” and you’ll see). If you generally want to be left alone in the woods NH is awesome though
