I mentioned it another comment . New York state is a police state. Laws created for NYC affect the whole state and their economy is different than the rest of the state so it creates for a state that's really more legislated than it need to be

For example? What "NYC-centric" laws in upstate NY do you think you'll avoid in Maine or Vermont?

There's a lot. And I don't want to turn this thread into that. Suffice it to say I'm not "running" away from NY state, we just prefer the land, region and feel of the outdoors in Vermont and Maine.

And no hostility intended this is more aimed at all the anti newcomers in this thread...Maine is part of the US and as an American, I have the right to buy land and live anywhere in the US I want.

Definitely have your right to prefer one to the other, of course. I was just curious because it might seem to you that you would have different rules in New England but in reality they could be more similar than you realize to upstate in many towns. But I suppose you have most likely done your homework on that, I just don't have the foggiest in what you are referencing exactly.
