Probably one of the best towns to live in the state of New Hampshire, in fact despite the crime rating on this website, even after living here my entire life I haven’t witnessed a single crime, I’m sure if you live in plaistow I’ve seen you before, it’s a really great place and it is absolutely gorgeous during the winter time (that is when there is actually snow) when there is snow it’s like a winter wonderland, plus all of the houses are a really nice, although there are a few crappy looking houses that could use a new paint job or a bit of fixing up, it’s a really nice place to live!
The town is a very nice and clean town. Every member of the town council gets along, there are no big fights like I've seen from other towns. Everybody is in agreement with each other! It's a town where everyone knows everyone and trust me I work at the local Market Basket so I do know everyone.
Having just moved to Plaistow, NH, we love it! Plaistow is close to the MA border, with beaches and hiking options. Plus you there is no income or sales tax. The Town has so much to offer, from shops and supermarkets to great food (check out Sushi Time), employment options and antiques! The Town Hall was very accommodating to us and the people here are very eager to help, with plenty of recommendations for restaurants, shopping and things to do in and around the are. Here's to our next five years in the town of Plaistow, NH!
