Reply to comment by thestateisgreen in FYI, Vermont is the safest state in America. by CHECK_FLOKI

Native Portlander that moved to NH 2 years ago. It’s super fun if your younger and single. Not a great place to raise kids IMO. The scenery is ridiculous but there’s too many people to enjoy it anymore 😢

Still getting used to New England but it’s been pretty dang nice out here so far.

I had a sense of that. Portland has never appealed to me. I primarily fell in love with Bend/Mt. Bachelor, the proximity to certain national parks (and western Canada terrain), and of course the short drive to the beautiful Pacific coastline.

Bend and surrounding areas a beautiful but it’s crazy expensive out there. If you can afford it I say go for it!

Smith Rock is absolutely stunning
