I would avoid living on any of the “Tree streets”(streets named after a tree. Beech, cider, pine etc) and not to live on the west side if you can avoid it. There are amazing parts of this city but they’re more on the south north and east sides. I read an article recently about how manchester and concord are the busiest housing markets in the country. Manch is like 40-50 min from Boston and concord is only a little farther north. People who work in Boston are moving here and making it expensive because of it. I suggest looking at surrounding towns (not Nashua) for an apartment or house if you can.

There are a million things to do around here. It is a nice city with good people and you can find a bunch of different activities on fb pages to try.

Good luck

It’s absurd. I couldn’t imagine. She tried to bring up weight and I’m like uhh this is a tiny car that’s not playing into it at all. My old car was heavier and cost $104 last year. The fact that the car is new shouldn’t mean that it costs more to register. What type of nonsense logic is that? Why does some get to pay less to keep their old hunk of crap on the road?

If you're going to have a car (recommended unless you live and work in the center of Manchester) then you may want widen your search area to the towns bordering Manchester. It's usually an easy commute (exception being days like today).
