I like New Hampshire as to what it stands for as well as its natural beauty... I think the same may well be true for Vermont and Maine possibly..

Unfortunately I am too old to learn new tricks and am somewhat a creature of comforts and things within reasonably close proximity.

When I built my house here there were only about 20,000 total people in the entire township spread out over a large area.

Last year our population has grown to 70,000 plus in the same area. Infrastructure keeps needing to expand and the roadways haven't changed at all.

This was the fastest growing township in OHIO for over 20 years straight..

I liked it better when I first moved here.

Now its almost impossible to find a house for sale but I want out of this Township . Miz micro is resistant to moving one township away because of all the stores and conveniences nearby within half a mile.

Iffen I can find about an acre or two for sale out about 3-7 miles in a developing rural subdivision I would be very tempted to sell the Brick house and move there to finish my days.

This way Miz micro can't run to various stores every single day and try to single handedly support them all..

She thinks she is Mrs. Claus........

Re: “I am grateful we have a highly skilled and well equipped emergency services in my township and I am no more than a quarter mile from them.”I imagine that has as much to do with where in Ohio you live as it does with the amount of taxes you pay. According to the Ohio Fire Marshal's office, the majority of fire departments in Ohio are staffed by volunteers, and the average age of these volunteers is 54 years old.

If I wanted to live in "The Big City," I expect I'd have the same sort of response times and skilled personnel as you've got in Ohio. But municipal taxes would go way up, and the advantages of living nearly tax-free (I've still got property taxes) would go away.

BTW, New Hampshire might be #2 in low taxes, but it's generally ranked #1 in freedom. It's a great place to live if you aren't a government dependent like the Pffarters.
