I've lived in Dover my whole life and love it here! Right outside of Portsmouth, NH and close to UNH, it's proximity to big cities such as Boston and Portland, Maine makes it fantastic in terms of accessibility of things to do. You can go to the beach and the mountains in the same day. Great NH town!
Dover has nice aspects of both town and city. Dover has about 30,000 residents and continues to grow. We have farms in the country, boutiques in town, suburban and ranch houses. It's a friendly town with parks, pools, festivals, live music, and farmers markets. Dover also has great schooling options; some of the best in the state!
I live in a quiet area, which is easily accessible to both downtown Dover and Portsmouth, so there is plenty to do while living in comfort! Downtown Dover has fun things to do in a low-key setting.
