My brother is building a house in Weare and plans on retiring there when he retires in a couple of years. I know very little about the SW part of NH; any general comments about the town or Hillsborough County? Any helpful comments are appreciated.

What would you like to know about the surrounding area, and limited info on Weare? I lived there many many moons ago. When shit was a little less updated. There was still a VHS place when I lived there. Anywho, I pass thru to Weare still to get to other places in New Hampshire. Either chat me or reply on here. Thanks

Just after the rebult police station. In was in a little plaza. Somewhere around 2005ish I believe. Digging deep here, I think I lived on craney hill. The mothers day flood had me stranded for a good bit. I'm sure if I continue to dig I can remember the movie place.

Meh, I was just curious about the town and trying to find any information beyond what I can find on Google Earth or Wiki. Had never heard of the Pine Tree Riot… they cut off the horse’s ears, mane and tail. Brutal. Cheers.

Never heard of the riot. Was there for a massive mother's day flood many years ago. Anyways, it's on the outskirts of everything. There is some amazing real-estate an options hidden around there. And it is off the beaten path enough. Plus, John Stark highway runs forever.

Home of the pine tree riot. Excellent choice.

First thing anyone needs to know about living here is to ignore the free state cosplayers like 5nd. It’s all elaborate performance art.

You're right; Weare is a terrible choice.

Weare is fine. Pine trees are real. Just some people like you live life on a switch when it’s really a dial.

Merry Christmas. I hope Santa leaves some nuance in your stocking.
