Brief Overview Of New Hampshire
New Hampshire has many pluses in the relocation influencing factors. It stands as the 3rd top state offering high tech jobs; 4th leading in Venture Capital and 8th in knowledge job creation. The people trust each other (more than the national average), and they attend to school meetings more than an average American family does. With lower crime rates, relatively less pollution, low unemployment rates, NH is a true competitor for deciding the relocation destination.

The minus point is the scores in Education that are less than the national average, the number of colleges are significantly lower than national average.

Mountains, boating, fishing, amusement parks, are all available in this state. Also, Lake Winnipesaukee, largest of 1,300 lakes and ponds; the 724,000-acre White Mountain National Forest; Daniel Webster's birthplace near Franklin; and Strawbery Banke, restored buildings of the original settlement at Portsmouth. In 2003, the famous “Old Man of the Mountain” granite head profile, the state's official emblem, fell from its perch in Franconia.
