My take on the matter, as a Nashua resident but NOT a homeowner, is that all the people who seem mad about it in the Nashua scoop and show up to complain about it are all people who are mad because they live in Nashua purely due to its relative cheapness and that it was close enough to Mass that they could commute. Now with the Home Price bubble, the city reassessing property taxes and all the tax change ups from the pandemic they’re horrified of the idea that Nashua is trying so hard to shake its Trash-ua image and becoming a place that has enough culture and quality that people will want to price them out. It’s fair, but I think anyone who complains about PAC are the same people who cry about the barriers allowing outdoor dining. They hate that their city isn’t a cheap ghost town anymore and that robs them of the convenience they enjoyed by no one wanting to be here or do business here.

Nashua’s gotten several of those best places to live awards. The secret’s been out for like 40 years at this point. It also got expensive a while ago, and it was really only cheap because of the one-two punch of the dotcom crash and 2008. They should’ve been shooting in their backyards at 3am more often ten years ago if they wanted to stop it (as the memes tell you to do). Too late now.
There’s two types of people. One thinks Hudson or Grafton is trashy, the other looks at anything resembling a city and thinks it’s trashy. But never fear, everyone knows ManchVegas is trashy.
