Main advantage to VT previously was very pro 2nd Amendment. But they passed some laws in April which now gives NH the clear lead in that area as well.
What do you think that says about the Vermont economy?

I wonder if there's any restriction regarding what town/county you have to move to. For example I know tons of people (including myself) who would love to move to Burlington, but few who would like to move to a place with nothing around (jay vt. for example).
Heavily considering both Keene and Concord NH areas in the next 2-3 years.
I'd love to move to Brattleboro area just based on accessibility to my current area and places I like to ski. But I think NH is the superior state in terms of governance, freedoms and livability.

5% Normal Rockwell and 95% an extension of Upstate NY devastated economy. Could easily be the other way around.
Vermont is very, very lucky to be a prime skiing location. Still, the majority of their population suffers.
You can always open a liquor store or "dispensary"!
Wouldn't move there simply because of the redeculous taxes. And that is coming from a flatlander from Mass.

VT seems to have some interesting zoning and building codes. On any given road you'll see a trailer, a tar paper shack, another trailer with a beautiful 4 bedroom 3 bath 9k sq ft home right next to it, and then a house that has all sorts of weird additions.
I know nothing about tax rates, but I did find it funny that the article I read said Vermont had lower tax rates than NY. They are probably hoping to draw a lot from NY especially.
I work remotely and live in NH mainly for family reasons, but I certainly appreciate the tax benefits. No better state in the Northeast for working remotely.
I don't think the tax advantages are the big reason the NH economy is so much better than VT or ME. The majority of the good jobs are either on the Seacoast or along the 3 and 93 corridors. Proximity to Boston is the real story of the state's economic strength. It's much easier to recruit recent grads from all the great schools to come an hour North to a lower cost of living place than it is to get them to move 2+ hours to ME or VT. There's also a huge population of residents who commute to mass for high wages. I think NH could raise their taxes (not that I want them to) to VT or ME levels and the economy in NH would still be far stronger than than those places. As they say, location, location, location.......
