O's in Concord has really good food and cocktails with a fancy, but not a snooty, atmosphere.

While I agree with most of this and southern NH is mostly accepting. A lot of it is in whispered conversations and private options. I work in construction and consider myself drastically different than at least 80% of the people I work with. Most of whom live in Southern NH. While the hate isn't directly out there it is still prominent no matter what part of the state you're in. While you're less likely to be in danger, you will for sure be judged heavily and looked down upon by these types of people. Can't count the amount of interactions I've had with people I work with where I think "hmm they seem like a decent respectable member of society despite being heavily conservative" only for them to drop some blatantly racist or transphobic comments and completely change my opinion of them.
