no need to delete it. The common practice since at least 2007 is a full purge. Then see what flies back in.
I say 2007 because that's when I started paying attention. ..

Good luck dudes

There is a large contingent of BOS pilots that live in NH and work in BOS. They pay NH taxes. I am looking at that exact possibility for upgrade.

No income tax if you live in NH, but property taxes can be slightly higher.

The cost of living in NH looks to be about 20% lower in NH vs BOS.

However, lots of people are saying that BOS is a great place to raise a family. I have three kids so pub schools are a mandatory requirement. I'm concerned about 1st year pay and living in the city of BOS.... Hence the inquires for NH.

Any insight into either would be greatly appreciated!

Living in the city is a blast, but damn expensive if you have kids. I paid $2k/month for a tiny 1bd apartment in a nice area of Boston. Check the north shore of Boston along Rt-95 for some great towns with excellent school systems. From Topsfield north to Newburyport are all great.

Go west of Boston towards Worcester for some more affordable areas too.

NH is definitely cheaper, but you have to pay attention to the shool districts and property taxes. The state motto is "Live free or die" and they'll let you die! Invest in a generator and a good snowblower!

My wife is a realtor in New Hampshire. I would like to recommend it as a great place to live while being Boston based! But seriously, it is nice to pay no income tax, the high property tax concern is valid albeit overrated in nice places like Portsmouth where it is around 17$/1000, and the schools vary wildly from garbage to great depending on where you choose to live. My guess is you would move here and never look back, though I still kind of wonder what living in Boston would be like.

C&J bus from Dover, NH and Portmouth, NH and Newburyport, MA is only 22 dollars round trip for airline employees. It drops you right off the terminal and cuts off the shuttle from the employee lot.

Bus Service ? Bus Tickets to Boston Logan NH New York | Ride CJ?

What is the realistic drive time from S. NH to BOS? I have looked at the Nashua area. Is anyone familiar with that area?
