My contention is that the internet played a much larger role than anything the Boston media did or didn't do as far as creating the perception.


BTW I never understood families that bought homes in Southern NH and worked in Mass, they end up with a double wammy! High NH property taxes AND paying Massachusetts income tax!
I think we are in agreement.

When I was a 20 something, we bought a house in southern NH for half what we would have paid in Northern MA where I work. That half price goes a long way toward paying higher property taxes AND my drive to the lake is <1 hour. It was not a concious decision to pay more taxes, it was a decision to have more house for less money. No regrets.
