What's stopping New Hampshire's cities from developing? It's like the "cities" in that state are just oversized towns.

Imagine Manchester or Concord with a subway system and maybe even New Hampshire's own major league sports teams.

My sister lives in Concord and every time I go to visit her I can't help but think how much wasted potential NH cities have. Concord, Manchester, Nashua, and Portsmouth are just tiny, fragmented downtowns surrounded by a bunch of single-family zoning. Imagine if everything was re-zoned and looked closer to Cambridge Mass.

Then again, I suspect people move to NH specifically because they like the rural character of the state.
